He's Finally Here!



Walker Weston Clark (7lbs 11 oz 21.9 in)!!!! We had our new baby boy on Friday July 10. He wasn't actually due until the 24th of July but he wanted to meet us early. I went to my doctors appointment on Thursday and he hooked me up to a non stress test to monitor his movements and my contractions started getting stronger and stronger. The doc came in and said, "are you in labor?" "i think i might be!" He checked me again and I had gone from a 3 to a 4 in 45 minutes. It was moving pretty quickly so I went home and got my stuff and went to the hospital. He was born at 1:25 Friday morning. The labor was a little rough because we had to turn off my epidural during pushing (not something I want to experience again!) and I had to push longer than I wanted to. But he's here and he's healthy so we couldn't be happier.
