Story time!

I dont want to forget anything about my delivery with Easton and it's a must to tell the whole delivery story, right?!
So I had it in my head that I was going to have an October baby and I wasn't about to let him come early...I totally jinxed myself, and Easton had other plans. September 27th I woke up feeling pretty darn good and went to work. As the day went on I started feeling a few pains...NO, NO, NO, not yet!! I sat my butt in the chair all day long and tried not to move around too much. I left work early to go home and put my feet up and I didn't move the rest of the night. I layed in bed tossing and turning with horrible pains till about 3:00 am. I finally woke Chandler up and told him I couldn't take it anymore and that he needed to get me to the hospital...NOW!!! He called my mom to come stay with the kids and off we ventured to welcome our sweet baby into our family...it was an adventurous delivery for sure. We got there and I was dilated to a 7 so they got my epidural right away. I layed there between contractions thinking ok it's working, but it wasn't, dang it. They gave me more medicine but all it was doing was making my left leg horribly numb. By this time Dr. Bailey had broken my water and I was almost complete so they couldn't take out my epidural and try again :( I had to be tough like the women that do this stuff without medicine...I was scared out of my mind, I know I'm a big fat baby! I got through it, with a few bumps in the road, (which I could not have gotten through without Dr. Bailey) but I did it and the biggest thing...Easton was here safe and sound and sweet as ever!!

Now, he is sleeping through the night, he is always smiling, he is so easy going, he does the sweetest little cooing sounds, and he's a little chunk! I could seriously kiss his cheeks all day long. I could not have asked for a better third child. He melts my heart and he is just growing so fast. Before I know it I'll be reading this to him and he'll say, read it again mom!! Makes me so sad to think about :( It's like he's been a part of our family forever...WE LOVE YOU EASTON, MORE THAN YOU'LL EVER KNOW!
