Wow how time gets away from me with 2 kiddo's to look after. It is so much fun to have 2 little boys!!! We are loving it. Dawson is such a good baby.. yes he is only 3 weeks but he is such a calm, go with the flow baby.
I posted a ton of pictures of right after he was born, the weeks after, and the photo shoot we just had.
And for the story of his birth... I started getting contractions late Monday night, so I went to bed. I slept quite well until about 5:30 a.m. and then they started to come every 10-12 minutes, but they weren't too strong just yet. So at 7:30 a.m. I told Mike to go ahead and go to work ( my mom had come to stay that week so that's why he was able to go into work). For the rest of the morning they progressively got stronger but the whole time I am thinking well I will go to the hospital when my water breaks (it broke with Brixton so I thought it would do the same with Dawson). Well about 11 a.m. I called Mike and told him to come home about noon, they were about 8-10 minutes apart then. About noon he got home and they were getting pretty strong and about 5 -8 minutes apart. We left for the hospital and got there just before 1 p.m. By the time we got to the hospital they were just a couple of minutes apart. The nurse checked me and I was a 7!! And Dawson was born at 2:15 p.m. Just over an hour after we got there. I was so relieved we made it and we didn't have a home delivery!! It was great to labor mostly at home though. And it was great to have him come so fast and easily.
