Well we had our son.. a shock to both of us, but such a wonderful shock it was. We cried many tears of happiness in that room and new our family was absolutely perfect in that moment. My water broke at 4:30 in the morning, and we arrived at the hospital at 5, girls in tow. Aubrie didn't want to be bothered cause she was still so tired, and Allie was oh so excited!! When we arrived I was checked right away to see how far along I was, and I was 6 cent. So i was well on my way, but honestly didn't want to suffer the pain, cause it was all in my back. So I opted for the epidural, which was heaven and made it all a breeze. At 10 I new something felt like it was ready, and when I told the nurse, she checked me and I was 10 cent. So I literally pushed twice and he was out. The cord was wrapped tightly around his neck that the doc couldn't even pull it over so he had to cut it there and blood squirted everywhere... I was still waiting and wondering at that moment what we had cause no one said, and finally after minutes, Riley said, "it's a boy", and we began crying together. It was an amazing moment, just like the last two were. We couldn't decide on a name for along time, but when we finally did we knew. Boedy Gavin, named after Riley's middle name, he weighed in at 7lbs 5oz, and 20.5 inches long. He was born at 10:12 in the morning, and he is a perfect baby. Recovery is going well.... i had the blues yesterday and cried alot most of the day, but that's also cause it was Allie's third birthday, and I just couldn't believe she was three already.
Life so far is great, he sleeps, eats, poops, and when he is awake he just looks around and listens for the girls. He barely moves and I don't u
nderstand where all those kicks came from inside..lol.. He is another angel sent to us, and i love him so much. I still can't believe I had a boy, and am getting so excited to go shopping
for him, cause Iam sure enjoying all the cute little boy outfits. The girls love him to death, we spend many hours of the day taking turns holding him, and Aubrie does so well. She is very gentle and always asks.. "hold it"!! Allie always has to check and see where HER baby is..lol...
All in all, life is perfect right now. I have three wonderful little ones and feel so wonderful now that I can move around and bend over, and bath the girls, and climb my three flights of stairs without having to stop for a break. Life is perfect!!!
