Kerrington is born

Ok, I've got both of the babies down for a nap... I'm sure this is the only time in my life I'll ever be able to say that right?  I hear they don't EVER go down at the same time : )  Anyway... WE HAD A BABY!  Thursday evening about 7:30pm I started having contractions and by 7:59am Friday morning she was born!  It was such a great experience we had our doula there with us again, Taffy, she was absolutely awesome!   We labored at home until about 1:30am and then headed to the hospital.  I ended up getting an epideural, I think that's going to be inevitable for all of my deliveries, I just can't handle it past that 4th centimeter.  The pushing was AWESOME!  It only lasted about 10 to 15 minutes and she was out.  What an amazing experience, even the second time around.  We are so blessed with a new beautiful baby girl.  Now that we've been home for two days we're adjusting quite well, Cam is handling it beautifully so far.  He loves his baby sister and always wants to know where she is and checks on her quite often.  We're so happy and so grateful to God for how he has blessed us.
