Welcome to 2013

About three weeks ago, I had a mama call me and say she might be in labor.  Contractions were regluar, lasting about 45 seconds and seemed to be getting stronger. Those contractions continued for several hours--just enough to mess up a good night's sleep--and then disappeared.  A few days later, the same thing happened...and again went away after using up most of the night.  And so it continued, for three weeks, until this morning when they did not go away, but continued getting stronger, though still a bit irregular. 

When I think back on this morning, I have to chuckle a bit.  Mama texted me and said she wasn't sure, but she would feel better if I was with her.  Baby had teased her so many times, she couldn't tell if it was really going to happen today.  (And to be honest, she was so calm through it all, I had a hard time telling, too!) But, I got to her house about 1:30 and within 30 minutes we were back out the door!

Mama labored beautifully in and out of the water and around 4:45 she welcomed her beautiful baby boy into the world.  It was such a peaceful delivery.  Mama was simply amazing and her baby has the cutest, chubbiest cheeks!  He is absolutely precious!

Congratulations, Mommy, Daddy, big brother and big sister!  I am so proud of you all and I am so thankful that you let me be a part of welcoming your little one to our world.
