New Baby Boy!

At approximately 8:45pm December 19th, the water broke. William rushed to gather everything together for the trip and stay at the hospital while I sat on the commode while my amniotic fluid drained. The drive to the hospital was a slow one as we have recently received three feet of snow. We arrived at about 10:00. Upon arriving we were admitted immediately and settled in. Kaytie was put on pitosin to encourage the contractions and at about 3:30 the epidural was administered and we were able to get some sleep. The baby seemed anxious to come out, but we wanted our doctor to be here to deliver him instead of the on-call doc. Within thirty minuted of the doctor getting here Spencer Carter Bouvier was given the gift of life. Weighing in at 7lbs 13oz and measuring 20in long! He was a natural at breast-feeding and has great lungs. This is the greatest event in our lives, overshadowing even the day were married in some ways. Baby and mommy are relaxing and doing great.
