We arrived at the hospital at 6am. They started my pitocin at 7am. I started having contractions at 8:30am. At 10:30am I received my epidural.
Here I am getting it put in. And you will notice Lane passed out on the couch. My anesthesiologist was like, "what's wrong with him?"
Moving on...I was so numb I couldn't feel a thing, much less move. By 1pm I was fully dilated and the epidural was starting to wear off. After about 3 sets of pushes, she arrived at 1:26pm.
Perry Leighton Blankenship
Weighing in at 7 lb 7 oz.

When they put her on my chest, I felt an overwhelming love for her.
She's just the sweetest thing.
Amy and Regina stopped by later to meet her.
She's such a party animal already. Ready to ring in the new year.
With her daddy.
I still haven't slept for the past 37 hours. I'm very tired and hope to get some sleep tonight. Highly doubt it, but I can dream.
