Introducing Baby Leo


Geez, I just realized I hadnt even blogged about Leo being born!!

It was a pretty smooth labor and delivery. Not bad for an old gal, eh?? lol Labor started about 11:30pm and once the clock struck midnight, the contractions got pretty close together. I woke the hubby up and then continued to putz around the house getting things done before I had to leave........of course, I had to keep pausing during a contraction and then quickly do something in the three minutes I had until the next one. lol I eventually called my mom and she came to my house. Then we were on our way. We got to the hospital at 2:30am and I was in my room at 3am. They were quite busy!!! The pain got intense at about 4:30am and I got some Fentanyl. Good good good stuff!! lol Of course, it wore off by the time things got really painful!!! Grr!!! I went from 5cm to 9.5cm in about an hour. The doctor barely made it into the room in time!! I was ready to go with or without him!!! Baby Leo arrived at 5:35am on 2/17/2012 weighing 8 lbs 10 oz and measuring 21 1/4 in long!!  :) We went home the next morning.

He is such a beautiful blessing and we are all enjoying him very much!! His brothers and his sister are so proud of him and so smitten with him. Everyone is so excited he is here!! We all waited for him for so long!!

xoxo,
