WW: The Birth of Reid

I should start by saying that these pictures are absolutely priceless to me.  My good friend, Steph, was there to capture Reid's birth and I can't thank her enough.  It was such an emotional day {I wasn't the only family member in labor!} and to have these pictures to look back on?  Sigh.  It's just so special.

So here they are. 

Reid's birth... in pictures.

9 pounds 3 ounces and 20 inches

What do you do when you're in labor right next door to your sister?

Facetime, of course.

And an hour later?  Aubrey Jean.

I was SO HAPPY that they brought Aubrey in to meet me.  My sister was having major bleeding issues and couldn't hold the baby right away.  Since we shared an L&D nurse, the nurse brought Aubrey in to my room so that I could quickly see her while they were still working on my sister. {My sister is fine now, by the way... I'll write about this in my birth story.}

Anyway... this moment?  One of the best ever.

Alright, time to start pushing.

Getting close!  {Look at the clock... Reid was born at 2:36pm}

Bob telling me IT'S A BOY!

Speechless.
