What everyone was waiting for

We just got home from the hopsital and I figured I had better get this information up for everyone that was waiting semi-patiently for it. Xander was born on Tuesday February 19th @ 6:00 pm. He weighed in at 8 lbs 7 oz and measured 20.5 inches long. The labor was not nearly bad as it could have been. We ended up going in at 9 am and they started her on the pitosin at 10:30. At 11:30 Dr Penney broke JayLyns water and then the really good contractions started. By 12:30 JayLyn decided to have the epidural and was much happier from that point on. At around 5:35-5:40 she started pushing and then after about 20 minutes Xander was born.



Well on to the part everyone really wants, the pictures..

Oh my goodness. He's soooooooooo cute. I am so glad everything went well. How are your guys doing now that reality had set in...or has it. Maybe Xander will show you his true self in a week or two when his wake times are longer. Hang in there, this too shall pass! You guys have waited a long time. We are happy for you.
