Surprise Week 34

Well week 34 has started like the last couple of weeks. We debated over the weekend if we should pack an overnight bag, just in case you know. But as usual we were busy and didn't get it done. Oops! That was a bad idea. Danita decided to wake me up at after only 15 minutes of sleeping with the announcement of "oh i think my water broke", this is 12:30 am! What how can that be we were only 34 weeks not 40! Turns out the baby doesn't count in weeks and he was tried of fitting his 5 lbs 4 oz 19 inch body inside Danita.

We headed to the hospital in the cold under the assumption that we would be coming home a few hours later. Only when we arrived at the hospital the nurses said, you are going to have a baby tonight as you are already at dilated to 4 cm's this is 1:30 and no contractions. From here on out the time get's a little fuzzy because it happened so quickly. Basically at 2:00 Danita decides on the great pain reliever the epidural. By 2:15 ish the Dr arrives and starts to drug Danita by 2:45 he is done. We check again at 3:15, 10 cm's time to have the baby. Danita was allowed to relax for about 30 minutes before the pushing began. She pushed hard for about 45 minutes and at 4:31:




Here are some more pics

What a Champion my wife is, that is a lot of pushing and still beautiful!



Here he is getting poked and prodded about 11:00.


Here he is with Mom:






Here I am with our amazing little baby:





As of the time of this post, no name! sorry, we've been busy and now we are tired and going to take a nap. Also Little Mr. No Name was using supplemental oxygen for the first few hours but seems be to doing fine with out it now. Right now mr. early baby is doing well. Thank you all for praying for this and for praying for a healthy baby! Danita is doing good too!

He is perfect and a wonderful surprise. I see his daddy's nose and bottom lip and his mommy's chin. He has about the same amount and color of hair as his daddy did.

Yes, I am the proud grandmother and happy to anounce. Give him lots of love for me too. I will see you all soon.

Love mom R

Congratulations! We are so happy for you. You ended up traveling awfully close to the time of his birth after all. Take this early arrival as an sign. Nothing will ever go as planned. We think you need to name him Little Mr. I'm a tax deduction or TD for short!

Get some rest while you can.

We can't wait to see him.

Enjoy!
Love,
Kevin and Naomi
