Details: I arrived at the hospital at 7:30 am to be induced. By the time the paper work was all done, I was in my room by 8:30 with my IV in and ready to go. Pitocin was started at 8:45 and my doctor came in at 9:00 and broke my water. All was going fine no pains and I was at 4 cm. Around 10:00 I had my nurse put in the order for my epidural and got it around 10:20. All pain was gone but I could feel LOTS of pressure. I never felt anything with the other two so this was something new (not good new). The pressure got worse and worse really fast. About 1o mins after getting the epidural, the nurse checked me and I was a 7. She frantically started getting everything together (baby's bed, prep table for the doctor etc.) I had told her earlier that I "go" fast after getting my epidural but probably just jinxed myself for saying so. Anyway, the pressure was getting worse by the minute and around 10:40 I was a 10 and the nurse called the doctor. After waiting another 15 mins. on the doctor, pushing started and at 11:05 we had our baby boy with us. We were all shocked at how fast everything went, start to finish, especially the nurses. My poor nurse looked like a mad woman running around prepping things because I came in at a shift change and no one expected a "sprint".
Here are some of our pictures from Friday.

He is so dang cute!!! I love that round little head, and the name is perfect..
The timeline of your delivery with him, sounds an awful lot like mine with Ash.. she was stuck though, so her time of birth was later as she was a c-section.
I am glad you all are doing well.
Too cute...
cute pics....Glad you at least had a fast delivery...hope things continue to go good for you guys....Love you....
He is so cute! I'm glad you both are doing well. I had a fast delivery with Zack, so fast there wasn't even time for an IV or epidural. I always joke that he was in a hurry to get here and hasn't slowed down since.
Congratulations! He is so cute!
The kids look like they loved him already. You did great. I can't wait to see him in person. Congrats.
Congrats!
Congratulations! He is definitely a keeper! Glad it was a good delivery, even though it went real fast. Hope you are feeling good. You have two great little helpers!
He is a doll. I hope you're feeling well.
I love the picture of you with Drew. The boys look like they adore him. My 3rd delivery went really quick too. Glad your mom is there to help you through the new transition
Congrats - he is adorable! I didn't realize you had him or I would have said something to Brandon yesterday at church. Love the name too!
