So, this time two years ago I was in labor with Ian. My first attempt at going all natural. I was determined to do it this way because I knew I could do it. Women have been having children naturally for centuries - I felt it was time for me to join the troops; so what if it took me until my third child:) I was in labor for 3 1/2 hours. I labored for an hour in the tub and they told me I should start getting out of the tub and to the bed. 8 minutes later, my healthy, handsome, bouncing baby boy was born!!
The birth couldn't have been more perfect! Mike "caught" him and announced the sex of the baby since we didn't find out. We wrote his name on the dry erase board and when my parents and Mike's parents walked in they asked what sex the baby was and we told them to look at the board and the mom's errupted into tears and laughter and thank goodness you finally got a boy!!
Today, I'm feeling kinda sad because we are done having children and I will miss going through the whole pregnancy/birthing experience again. But I feel that our family is complete. We are blessed with three healthy children!
Happy 2nd Birthday to my sweet boy - Ian!!!
Mud puddle!
