Jack is here!!

On Monday morning I woke up about 6am and I felt like I was leaking water..well I had an appointment later that day so I decided to wait and just ask her about it. About noon I started feeling sick to my stomach..by the time we got to the appt. at 2 I knew something was happening..I started having contractions while we were waiting to see the Dr., of course my bloodpressure was high so when the Dr. did come in she hadn't looked at my chart of symptoms so she told me well I'm sending you down to the hospital b/c of your blood pressure..I was like umm..did you read what else is going on? She got so excited when she read them, and checked and sure enough my water had broken!! We hurried down to Labor and Delivery and we were so excited, we weren't expecting it at all! The started inducing me b/c labor had to get going b/c of my water being broken..so the contractions started coming hard and fast. I lasted 4 1/2 hours without having an epidural..I have no idea what I was thinking!! They gave me the epidural about 7..and it was amazing..after 7 I felt nothing until it was time to push!! Sadly enough I didnt get to push until 4:30am..at 5:02 am..Jack made his entrance to the world!! It was an amazing experience..Michael was a great coach..we are both in love with this little guy! It's hard to believe you can love someone just knowing them for a minute! It is Wednesday and we are doing great, he is eating very well and maintaing his weight! I feel great I have been up walking around, my blood pressure is still high but the nurse says it is because everytime I come in I am doing something ;)..I'm just to excited!! He has a ton of black hair and its so cute! It was so worth going through 9 months of craziness to meet this little man! We will be going home on Thursday. Thank you for all the prayers, visits, and gifts! To view pictures click on this link or copy and paste it:
