New Nephew

Today was an exciting/stressful/great day. I was able to see my new nephew Cole Marc Thompson's birth. That makes my count of watching live births up to 4 now. One daughter and 3 nephews. Not many people can say that. The ironic thing is the one birth I didn't get to see was Jordyn's. I had a huge sheet in front of my face. I'm not complaining though. My husband did a great job of not fainting until after he recorded her coming out. Poor Regan, he will never live that down. I am so thankful to Kim, Jen and Brittany for letting me be a part of the experience! I don't know too many sister-in-laws that have sister-in-laws come in to the delivery room. Sisters yeah but not sister-in-laws. I wish I could return the favor but I like to do things the hard way.
Cole was born at 12:22 p.m.(I think). He weighed in at 8lbs 1oz and 21 inches long. He had a ton of fluid in him and was really gurgly. He was having a little bit of a hard time breathing so they hooked him up to a c-pap(probably didn't spell that right)for a while. They took it off and he still wasn't breathing great so they had to give him an IV and draw blood for tests. Of coarse they couldn't get a vein and the poor little guy had to keep getting poked. we were all stressing out. As many of you know. My family doesn't handle stress too good. As the day went on the tests came back fine and by the end of the day he was able to go to mommy's room. I only have this one picture that I took with my phone but I plan to go back down at the end of the week and get a bunch.
Happy Birthday Cole!!!
