Easy Peasy!

Believe it or not, this picture was taken about 30 minutes before Jonas was born during a full-on contraction. I'm not even sure she knew she was having one (contraction, not baby :) )Let me just say that epidurals are amazing!

By the way, anesthesiologists and other medical professionals have my complete and utter respect... I could never do what they do!

I'm impressed! When i had my epidural with Kyle, i still had major lower end labor pains--it was nutty, but now i think the epidural wasn't strong enough...i had massive breathing exercises for hours due to the pain--i'm SO GLAD yours was 'pleasant.' You look fabulous during labor!!!!

Congratulations you guys! Jon and I were just talking today about whether or not you had the baby yet. He said I should check your blog--and I haven't checked it in a while. So I was happy to see that you had your precious little guy. He is adorable and you both look so proud.

I hope you enjoy the babymoon time!

Hugs to all of you!

Wow! My epidural ran out right when I started pushing and they didn't give me another one b/c they suspected I would need to have a c-section. They were right, after two hours of pushing with no meds!! Yikes!

So glad you had a better labor!
