Baby is Finally here!

Ok everyone i finally had Baby Carson! I was supposed to have him on Friday the 26th but we found out the hospital's operating room wasn't open on Friday so they switched the date to Monday the 29th...but i went into labor on Saturday the 27th! So John Carson Mitchell was born 12/26/08 at 7:30 am, weighing 8 lbs 10 oz, and 21 inches long! Yes he is my biggest baby and thank heavens it was a c-section i can't imagine pushing him out...lol The delivery went great no complications. Carson is very healthy and strong and he love love loves to nurse he is always hungry. I think his motto is....If i am awake then i need to be eating! He nurses about every 1 1/2 to 2 hours for at least 10-15 min on each side so i feel like i am always nursing him...lol I am feeling good, i'm a sore but it's bareable and my mom will be here on Thursday to take care of me! Thanks heavens for my mama i don't know what i would do with out her. I get to have her all to myself for a full week I am so excited! I will post pics of the baby later today, Bret has the camera and he's at work so when he comes home i'll post the pics!

I went to the Doctor today and he finally scheduled the c-section! I can't believe this pregnancy is actually coming to an end, lately i have been feeling like i wouldn't ever actually have this little boy...like i would be preggers forever! But now that i have a date which is Dec.26th i feel like ahhh i am really going to be done and soon! It's only 2 1/2 weeks away, which feels due able....lol compared to 4 weeks which is my actual due date and that sounds horrible...lol I am so excited to be done being preggers and get this little kid here! yay only 2 1/2 weeks!!!
