Hold on to Your Hats!!

This afternoon around 2PM Heather started having contractions.  Of course this was nothing new since she had been having contractions off and on for several weeks.  So she took Joshua to Gymboree and went about her business.  But unlike all the other contractions, these persisted.  By 445PM they were becoming more intense and she was thinking I should probably head home.  So I made my way home, we called our nanny to watch Joshua, and then we headed into the hospital.  On first check Heather was dilated to 5cm so they let us stay!!  She asked for the epidural around that time but the anesthesiologist had to deal with two emergent cases ahead of Heather.  She did a GREAT job with some very intense and frequent contractions!!  Here are some pictures of the action so far!!

They aren't going to turn us away!!


Thank God for anesthesiologists and epidurals!!

Last chance for some peace and quiet...

Look at that uterus go!!
