He's here!!!!! Our sweet little Baby Boy Sheldon is finally here just 2 days past his due date!
He was born today, September 18th, at 2:59 a.m. and he weighed in at a hearty 9 pounds 14 ounces and 21 1/4 inches long, and he has the most beautiful cry in the whole wide world. He's perfect and oh-so-handsome in every single way.
15 hours of rocking contractions never more than 2 minutes apart. An entire emergency room filled of people staring at chelle as she worked through 2 huge contractions back to back while leaning on the check in desk. 3 nurses unable to get a vein to start an IV, finally the anesthesiologist had to come in to start it and he finally got it on the 3rd try which made a grand total of 9 pokes that we can find. 3 epidurals gone wrong, he finally got it in on the 4th try. My water breaking and literally exploding all over Dean like a water balloon while I was having a killer contraction during the anesthesiologist attempting to put an epidural in (I'm not kidding, it literally exploded all over Dean's shorts, leg, and down to his shoes). Then pushing my sweet baby boy out 2 hours later and only had to push 40 minutes, and my doctor was a superstar at getting him out. Every single minute of pregnancy and labor was absolutely worth it.
We're still deciding on a name for him so that news will have to come later.
We're completely head over heels in love with him, and we feel blessed beyond anything we could possibly deserve. Thank you Heavenly Father for blessing our family with such a perfect little man that we have the privilege of raising.
Mommy meeting him for the first time just seconds after he was born. I immediately fell in love with him and couldn't stop crying and his cry is permanently recorded on my heart.
Daddy holding his son for the first time.
My heart will explode with love for him. I can't even stand the cuteness. We make unbelievably cute babies.
