The whole story...
Well, as you know, we headed off to the hospital Tuesday evening around 5pm. We gave hugs and kisses to Ms. Blayne and left her with Zara- who fortunately was able to come stay with us and help- not only for the first few days after Mr. Caden's arrival, but a few days prior in order the help us prepare and take care of Ms. Blayne.
We got settled in and met with Dr. Nguyen around 6pm and he administered the cervidil...a familiar situation. I immediately started to have regular but not strong contractions.
Shortly after midnight I awoke with very strong contractions and had already progressed to 4cm. We quickly opted for the epidural and shortly after it was administered, they checked me again and I was at 8cm. Caden was born about an hour later.
He arrived at 3:37 am weighing in at 7 lbs 1.2 oz and measuring 20 inches- wide eyed and dimple chinned (did we have any doubts?).
We couldn't be more excited or more proud of the newest addition to our now family of four!
Welcome, welcome Caden James!!
