Baby Benson
7lbs 5oz 19 1/2 in long
Birth Story- At 3:00 we all headed to the Desert Museum, on the drive there I felt contractions the whole way but they were not painful at all, so we went to the museum but there I had us go to just two quick things. Alden was really excited about the museum and I felt bad leaving but I thought it would be best. (this was about 4:00) I took the Mom, Dad and the boys home then went to get Michael. I was thinking we would walk around for awhile first..still wasn't in any pain but we went to the hospital so we would be close, this was about 4:45. There was a line to get admitted so we waited, then went back to triage around 5:30. By this time I was in some pain. She checked me and said I was a 4. A 4 I had been at a 4 for 2 weeks!! I was disappointed, she went back to check my records, and I guess decide if I was actually in labor, but my water broke shortly thereafter at 6:00, she came back at 6:10 and had me taken to a labor room, there I asked her to check me again. She did not respond but got on the phone yelling, Help I need Help now and started running around opening the door, anyways I was in extreme pain and was ready to push and started pushing, the doctor got there just in time to catch sweet little Benson at 6:21 P.M. All in all it was a great delivery!
When Calvin came in and saw Benson for the first time, he said, "Baby, Cute" He is now a big brother of a cute little baby!
Alden was super excited to meet his baby brother. He has been a big helper getting everything ready for Baby Benson's arrival and knew he was coming soon.
