The Labor story...
Monday morning I woke up having contractions thinking this was the day. They were about every 10min so I stayed around the house packing my bag waiting on them to get closer. Well hours went by and they never got closer. So we went to the office to get things checked out. I was still 3cm the same as I had been. I went home took some ibuprofen and went to bed. Slept great! Tuesday we went back to the office b/c they wanted to see me again. Nothing changed but they set me up an induction. I really didn't want the induction and prayed really hard that I would go into labor. That night I told Wayne he could go to Raleigh to eat with a friend from Seminary, that I didn't think labor was in my future. He went and Me and Wayne's mom took Walker to soccer practice. I walked the track hoping something would kick in. Well, what do you know but after we got home I was rocking Reese to sleep and my Contractions started up again. And this time they were 3 min apart. I called Wayne and told him it was time. He was about an hour and 1/2 away. I was really scared b/c my labors go really fast, and once he made it home we still had a 45min drive to the hospital. Wayne took off and every 5 min I was calling him asking him where he was. On the way home he did get stopped by a cop but the cop let him go, I couldn't believe it. You would think the cops are tired of that story...My wife is in labor!! To make a long story short we made it to the hospital just in time to get an epidural and a new smile. Everything was wonderful. I praise God that he put me in labor and brought a healthy baby girl to us. Ivy is wonderful and we Love her very much.
I know Amy would love to take pictures of your family...if you want her to just let me know and I will give you her info!!
