I know that I haven't written in a while, but I have been a little busy getting ready and actually having a baby. Things were not as smooth as expected. Greg and I chose October 22 to be Owen's birthday. This was one perk of having a repeat C-section. We were all set to be at the hospital at 6 am for a 7:30 surgery; however, Owen had a different idea. Unlike Gavin, who would have been content to stay in my belly for another 2 weeks, Owen decided that he did not want to wait any longer.
I had contractions all day on Thursday, October 21, but still went to work as planned and went on with my business. On Friday morning, at 3:30 am, my water broke and we rushed to the hospital b/c the pain that I was never supposed to experience was in full force. So my very impatient second son was born before we were even supposed to go into the OR.
Owen was a healthy 8 lbs. 7.5 oz, 21.5 inches born at 6:44 am. Not quite as big as Gavin, but still a big boy. Gavin is very helpful with his little brother and loves to hold him and give him lots of kisses. Hopefully that will continue. I will post more pictures ASAP, but for now this will have to do.
