Nash Michael

Nash Michael was born on Tuesday August 11th at 1:29 pm. He weighed 8 lbs. 20 1/2 inches. I was so lucky and begged my doctor to induce me on Monday. I was already dilated to a 3 and my doctor said that I owed him because he would induce on my due date, and with your first he usually doesn't do that. I was so ready to be done being pregnant and couldn't imagine waiting another week. We went in Tuesday morning at 6:30 am and I was already dilated to a 4 on my own. By like 7 :45 was put on pitocin and my doctor broke my water at like 8:15. I was ready for an epidural by that point and it was smooth sailin from that point on. I started to go on my own like 30 min after and was taken off pitocin. Nash was born a few hours after and it was so fun having my family all there. (at least everyone but Cam) Nash was healthy and beautiful! He hardly cried and seemed to calm himself down!! It was such an amazing experience and went a lot better than I planned for...at least the labor part. Nash is so cute and such a good baby. He has Sean's nose and eyes I think and my families chin. He also has the longest hands, fingers, toes, and feet!!! Mom and Nash are both doing well and healthy and that's all I could ask for!!! We are some proud parents and think we make a pretty cute baby!!!!!
