Alright! The time finally came. Sorry everyone who has been waiting to see pictures. I don't know why it took me so long to post. Dustin has actually been a little busy, so now he's here to help with the kiddos, so here goes. Basically, Tuesday night I was in lots of pain, so I didn't go to work Wednesday and asked to go to the doctor instead. He checked me and I was dilated to a 2 1/2 and 90% effaced. He could feel the head and said one membrane was already gone. He stripped my membranes, and I basically contracted from then on out. I went home for about two hours and the told Dustin to come get me. This is the only picture I have of me pregnant. We took it right before we walked out the door to the hospital. Mind you, I was having a contraction during this picture. Super fun!
We got to the hospital at about 12:30 in the afternoon on Wednesday. Here we are at the hospital. Just getting ready. I had my epidural and felt really good after that. I went from a 5 to a 10 in an hour. The nurse checked me and said, "Let's start pushing!" I was SO EXCITED!
I pushed through one contraction and baby was here! We named him Noah Dustin Hansen. He was born at 5:07 PM on Wednesday. 8 lbs 6 oz. Twenty inches. He screamed til I fed him, and then he's been good ever since.
Proud daddy.
Thanks to grandparetns for taking Macie while we were at the hospital. They brought her a few times to meet her little brother. This picture is pretty much the cutest thing ever. Macie LOVES Noah. She is already such a good helper and hasn't even gotten jealous, which is what I was really nervous about. She's awesome.
Shopping spree with Grandma. She had to show us her new outfit.
I'm wondering who he looks like. Macie was totally Walters. I'm not sure about this one. He has little hands and feet. Nothing like the long fingers and toes Macie had. He's pretty stinking cute. We came home Thursday night and are so glad to be home and getting back on schedule. Noah sleeps a lot and eats SO good. That's always nice. Anyway, thanks for everyones calls and stuff. Sorry if I haven't gotten to calling people back. Hopefully everyone can get their fix for a few days with these pictures. We love our little family!
