He's here! Well, he's been here for over a week now, but with hospital stay, the time needed for uploading pics, and getting adjusted to not much sleep, I haven't had the chance to update the blog.
Last week Sunday afternoon, Lyd and mom called to see if I wanted to go apple picking. Usually this is a family thing, but with Dad being gone in Canada, we decided to go ourselves. Lee had a headache (which could have just been a cop out because the Lions were on OR because it was me, mom, and Lyd going - his favorite people :)). While apple picking, I felt like I was wetting myself. An unusual thing, but when pregnant, anything can happen. Sometimes I felt I had to go #1 so badly and only one ounce would come out, so with this "leaking" in my pants, I wasn't too concerned, just felt awkward. Lydia laughed at me and mom told me not to worry. We finally made it home with a blanket on the seat to protect the car from being soaked and Lee was ready to head to the hospital. I said, "Wait a minute. Let's call the doctor first...". We did and they told us to come in. I had no contractions until we arrived and things progressed rather quickly. I got admitted at 7pm and had Deagan at 10pm. I was dialated to a 5 when I got there at 7pm and was dialated to an 8 by 8pm. I was feeling awful contractions, but once that epidural hit, I felt great. :) It was magical... really. Pushing was easy and he came quickly.
Deagan is perfect. I may be biased, but he is just the perfect size (smaller than we assumed, but just right for us), has lots of hair, Lee and my features, and is just a great cuddle bug. We love him and can't get enough of him.
Here are some pictures (a few of the 150+ pictures that we already took of this munchkin):
