I just wrote out Evan's birth story (which happens to be 5 pages long!). I'm planning on shortening it for the blog, but it will be soon to follow. In a nutshell it was just PERFECT. I had the labor and delivery of my dreams (and baby of my dreams) and feel so feel very complete with the whole experience! With each child I have become a bit more and more precise about how I dream my labor will be....and since this was my last baby, I'm just SO happy that it went so perfectly. For now here are a few pictures of my labor and delivery and the moments after the birth. I have a zillion photos to come of our hospital stay so stay tuned :)
This is the natural labor and delivery room where I delivered Evan. Isn't it gorgeous!! I was SOOOOO hoping to have the natural delivery room available and it was. That big round tub there was my LIFESAVER! It was certainly what got me through it. I also used the tub during my natural delivery with Kaitlyn but this time I stayed in the water until the pushing phase. It was AMAZING to feel the relaxation of the hot water!
Me in labor. This photo was taken at 10:40. I was only 50 minutes away from meeting our new baby!
And...HERE HE IS!!! Just moments after his birth... SO VERY NEW!!!
I'll be posting a few more photos of his birth and the birth story very soon! Stay tuned!

Congratulations! He is beautiful and perfect. It's wonderful to hear that you had such a great delivery. Sorry for only commenting now, but I was offline for a bit. Oh yeah! He was born on my wedding anniversary!
Sorry, the last poster was me. Veronika
