Our sweet little babe is finally here! Meet Owen W. Booth born on June 2nd at 3:06am. He weighed 8lbs 2oz, and was 20 inches long. He looks like his brothers except for the fact that his hair is brown like Trevor, it will be interesting to see if it goes blonde and curly. The newborn stage always makes me a little nervous but I love how warm and cuddly they are.
Just a warning: this next part is lengthy but I want to write it down before I forget. I went to my appointment last Tuesday and because of a little bit of spotting he said if I was dialated to a 2 he would send me up to labor and delivery. I gave Dr. H a high five and seriously got tears in my eyes I was so happy (happy to get our baby here and just as happy to not be pregnant anymore). Labor and Delivery couldn't take me until 9pm so Trev and I got a few things packed up while the boys were with Deb and Madi and then we headed to my parents for dinner and to drop the boys off to sleep.
After I got the drugs that were supposed to put me into labor it was a SLOW process. I was there for about 4 hours before I made any sort of progress but once I hit a 4 I was a 10 in about an hour. All I can say is that I love epiderals and am so grateful for them. Even though it was the middle of the night and I was in labor we actually had kind of a good time chatting and laughing with our cute nurse Nanci, our Anethesialogist (sp?) Dr. Stevens and Dr. Horsley.
Finally baby Owen was here! Trev and I didn't sleep at all that night, too much going on. And we still haven't caught up, but that little boy is worth every bit of lost sleep.
His brothers are loving him. Charlie has this super cute baby talk he does to him about 2 inches from Owen's face, poor baby, but Charlie just can't get enough of him. Will is so proud of him and loves to show him off to his friends. I'm so grateful for these 3 little boys!
