Sawyer's big debut

With excitement... baby Harry has joined our family. We checked into the hospital at noon on Sunday shortly after my water broke as we arrived at church Sunday morning. We spent a few hours in our birthing room with family before the main contractions kicked in. Of course after I began to experience a few of the longer and stronger contractions we made the call for the epidural which I gratefully enjoyed for the next few hours. At 8:30pm, we were all shocked when suddenly the nurse asked if I was ready to push. The family quickly retreated to the waiting room while Michael and I prepared for the big moment and after a short and speedy labor, we are pleased to announce his arrival.
