After long anticipation our son Lucas finally arrived! He was born on January 2nd, 2010. He was 8 lbs 3 oz. and 20 inches long. What a great way to start off the new year. Stephen and I were getting a little discouraged because we really wanted Lucas to come before the first but the new year rolled around and it didn't look like Lucas was coming any time soon. Stephen and I had decided that on the first we would have a few friends over for games and a movie. We finally got everyone out of the house by 12:30 a.m. A few hours later at 4:00 a.m. I woke up to my water breaking. About a million emotions hit me right then. I was nervous and scared and happy and a little bit more nervous and scared. Stephen and I packed up the car and worked our way up to the hospital. I wasn't feeling any contractions yet but by the time we settled and got admitted into the hospital I started feeling them. And the next 11 and a half hours was the most painful crazy time ever!!!! But I did it all naturally which I was quite proud and when it was all over the pain was definitely worth it. We had our very healthy son who everyone says looks like me. I still can't believe everything we have been through the last few days. Last night was our first night with Lucas at home with us and we were kinda scared how it was going to go but he is a good eater and a good sleeper it is mom and dad who have to adjust now! We are feeling pretty good today though trying to fit into our new role as parents. This blog is going to be dedicated to that adventure and watching our son grow up and become the man of God we know he will be.
