7 years ago today.....

7 years ago today I was 37 weeks pregnant with our second child and first boy. I was feeling pretty bad and had been for about 2 days. I only had one week left before I went on maternity leave from teaching......thankfully I already had everything ready for final exams and the sub. After talking with Dr. Hancock on the phone she decided I needed to come in to be checked. We got my in-laws to come and watch Em so we headed to the hopsital in Alabaster. I was dehydrated, had a tempature, my blood pressure was up, and I was having contractions (but not feeling them). Well since I was having a second c-section my doctor decided Austin was coming that day. Poor James had to go home and pack my bag since he won't let me pack or bring one before we left (he was in denial that Austin could come early since Em was so late). LOL  He soon came back with Em and my in-laws.

Em was so much fun in the hopsital while we were waiting for the time of the c-section. So just thought it was so funny to wear my slippers. When it came time for me to go and they wheeled me out I heard her little voice yelling for me....that just brok my heart and the tears just started....and then I am thinking I am not ready for this as we got into the operating room....LOL...like I could do something about it. Thankfully this time it was much easier than when I had  an emergency one with Miss Em.  It just took a few minutes and Austin was born. He was a skinny 7 pounds and 7 ounces and I think 19 inches long. He was such a laid back baby as you can tell in this photo...LOL.

He is such a joy and brings alot of laughter to our family. I cannot believe how fast the last 7 years have gone....I hope the next 7 slow down a bit. Happy Birthday Austin!! We love you bunches and know that God has an awesome plan for you!!!
