He's here! I always have the best intentions of updating my blog but life happens and I rarely do. This was a post worth having. Our fourth little babe was born on November 21st around 4 pm weighing in at 6 lbs 5 oz. After going into labor around 33 weeks the doctor told me he would have to admit me into the hospital or give my word that I would be on strict bed rest at home. We chose to go home. My mom was so sweet to come right up as soon as we needed her. I was given a steroid shot to advance baby's lungs in case he was early. I did my best on bed rest for 10 days then I was able to start moving around a little more. My mom headed home on the 20th and thats when Linda headed down. We are so lucky to have moms that will come whenever we need them no questions asked. I woke up with pretty bad pains and around 8:00 I decided we should head in. I had been dilated to a 5 for two weeks so the doctor said I needed to stay and we would get things going. I was at 37 weeks and they were confident the baby would be healthy at that point. It wasn't long before I was at a ten and ready to go. One and a half pushes later the baby was here! The pregnancy was such a nightmare but the birth was heaven. I am pretty lucky to have had four wonderful deliveries. Chad and I had a few names narrowed down and I chose one that we hadn't even really discussed. I was looking at the baby and the whole time I just thought " he is a Henry" it seemed to fit him just right. We are so glad he is here and healthy! Adjusting to 4 is quite an ordeal but I am loving it so much. This little boy is such a sweet addition to the family. Welcome to the family Henry!
Getting sugar water while he was getting snipped. He didn't cry at all!
Going home!
