Yes, He is finally here! Tate Bradley Kitterman was born on Saturday November 1st, at 11:31 pm. Weighing 7 lbs 5 oz and 21.5 inches long, and absolutely ADORABLE. I can't get over how cute this little boy is!!! It's so weird to think he is all our's, and totally dependent on us.
I started having some pain in my back on Friday but didn't think anything about it, then they started coming more frequent and I realized these might be contractions (so different from what i thought they would feel like because they were all in my lower back.) I was up all night Friday counting them. They tapered off about 6:00 am on saturday morning. Mike had to go help his sister move and I went to have lunch with some friends at the Gateway. They came back while we were shopping, Mike came to pick me up and we just thought we would go to the hospital to see if it was the real thing. We got there at 5:00 pm and told the nurse "we wouldn't be offended if you sent us home" because when we got there i wasn't feeling the pain as consistantly as before. She checked me and i was dilated to a 5! It was really happening, and it scared the crap out of us! An hour later the Dr checked me and I was at a 7 or 8.
I was expecting to be in labor for a long time since this was our first baby, and my mom was in labor for 20hrs with her first. But the nurse said that I should have the baby that same night, And she was right! 40 mins of pushing and he was born. I still can't believe how easy i had it, (of course I had the epidural) but I hope all our kids come this fast.
This whole experience has been very humbling and has made me appreciate Mike so much. He is such a great new dad and I love learning how to be parents together. This is such an exciting time of our lives! ---Hallowen---
Here are some pictures I was going to post from Halloween.
