The story of Easton!

14/365

Well, this time I have a good reason for getting behind on my picture a day/ #projectlife365...Yes, that is right, Easton Patrick has arrived! Here is his story!

Tuesday January 8, 2013 - After pain/discomfort/cramping for three days, I decided it was time to call labor and delivery and get checked out. I expected to go in and be told to go home. After Jeremy and I got the hospital at 5:30 PM, it was decided I was having contractions, my water would break soon (which was not wanted due to a footling breech baby), and it would be best if we stayed- and had the baby now! I was prepped for surgery and our beautiful blessing arrived by cesarean section at 9:10 PM. Despite being born at 36 weeks and 5 days, out little man passed every health test and was easily the cutest baby in the hospital! (biased, nope!)

Here is his beginning in pictures!
