Talk about a whirlwind. Saturday night my wife starting having small contractions about 10-12 minutes apart and we didnt think to much of it. Out of nowhere her water broke and her contractions went to 5 minutes apart instantly. So it was, load up the burb we are out of here at 1030pm. Half way to Evergreen Hospital the contractions went to about 2 minutes apart. I thought we were going to have a baby inside the car on the way to the hospital. Got to the hospital and got her to a room. After sitting in the bath tub for about 20 minutes it was time to push. After 15 minutes of pushing we had the new little one. TOTAL TIME IN LABOR: 2 hours!! She did this with no medications or drugs of any kind. The hospital said that only 10% of the 400 births a month can do it all natural (note to self, don't piss her off). The baby came so fast that there wasnt even a doctor in the room with us and the nurse ended up having to deliver the baby! I will be inquiring as to what kind of a discount I am going to get for not having a doctor present in the room when the baby is delivered.

She is a tiny little thing and is very quiet. She has yet to cry once. Even when she was born she just looked around at everyone and she only makes little noises when she is hungry. It was really nice not having a squalling baby in the room with us like some of the other new parents that were there. But she was up all night wanting to eat so we are both tired. I stayed up to make sure Misty was comfortable and had what she needed. Not only that but the hospital had cable so I got to watch all the discovery channel and history channel I could handle.

We are now back at home and getting settled in. Baby is doing great and so is mom. We have nick named Sailer, "Squeeker". She makes little mouse squeek's when she sleeps. Little Boyce is loving having a sister around.

As soon as I can find the memory card for my digital camera I will get some pics up.

Congrats!!!! That is fantastic news. I'm glad to hear that mom and the little one are doing great! And, quiet is even better. Where's the pics? (and get some sleep!!!!!).

CONGRAT'S

Glad to hear everybody is doing fine!

This site is starting to scare me with all the baby's

36yrs old chained for 15yrs and no kid's

Camera phone is the best I can do right now.

Awwww......

She must look like her mom.

welcome to the ONLY job you need for the rest of your life!

CONGRATS!

Congrats! That is a very special what you have

Congrats Boyce !

Man, I have tears swelling up. I know it's your second one Boyce, but it's just magical when you see it for the first time, huh? I cried more than my baby when she popped out!

Congrats, glad the baby and the mom are okay.

Congratulations! She's sweet.

Congratulations!

congrats.
what's the first mod ? a more restrictive catback ?
j/k... congrats for you and your wife.

Congratulations and best wishes to you and your family.

That's not much different from normal. The nurse does all the work, and then the doctor shows up at the last minute to catch and collect a fee.

I'll second the restrictive catback option. I still don't understand how my daughter can be so anal-retentive when she still, uh, isn't

Congratulations!

Congratulations !

Congrats, papa ...

It is a totally different feeling with a daughter now. My wife has already come to the conclusion that this will be a "daddy's girl".

Congrats on a healthy kid

When will you be sending out the cigars?

Maybe she mean you'll be watching her alot I have my own little princess. I wouldnt say she's a daddys girl. But she knows where to go when she want something

Ha ha, my close to 1 year old daughter is definitely Daddy's Girl. I actually switched to working from 5:30pm to 12:30'sh so I can look out after her during the day. I'm tired, but much happier (and more at peace).

Boyce that is awesome, congratulations! You guys probably don't realize how lucky you got to not have to go through the 12+hrs of labor most babies end up taking...good for all three of you!!

Our first was 16 hours of labor. So this one was definately a blessing. Especially for mom. I came back to work today and all of my female employees wanted the full story. When I told them it was 2 hours of labor they all got this look of hate in thier eyes............lol!

One more since I am a proud dad.
