William Henry is Here!

I'll keep it short for now.  William came last Wednesday without an induction.  I had contractions all morning and made it to 8 cm with little pain, got the epidural, and had William after only 4 or 5 pushes.  He's healthy, beautiful, and so good.  Edie is somewhat interested in him.  When she can pull herself away from various projects to come see him she will gently pet him.  It's so cute.

I'd like to give a shout out to my mom for weeks of help that include caring for our annoying dogs, watching Edie for about a week, and helping me constantly since William's birth.  You are an amazing support.

Under the influence of my epi.  I recommend them to all pregos.

These gloves have been hidden.  She wanted them on constantly.

    Whitney,
    He's "William" to everyone else in the world, but "Hank" to Amy. I am confident that she will never give in.
