3:15 am at the Hospital

Ryan here.

Well the whole theory with the snow storm bringing on labor seems to have worked. Last night Casey started her contractions. So the packing of the bag began. This and that made it's way in. We got in the car and made the trek. We arrived with a goal of a quick labor. Well, the doctor broke the news lightly. We began to walk around the hospital and give ourselves the self guided version of the tour we are supposed to have Tuesday. We ended up back in the room with me falling asleep. I am awakened by Casey's water "releasing", not breaking. As the contractions progressed, so did her urge for the DRUGS!

Now I sit next to Casey who is smiling and asking me the question; Why doesn't everybody get these drugs? She seems to be a big advocate for it. I think she might leave her teaching career and start selling epidural medicine.

So 3:15, we are doing well.

Yes! We brought Teddy!!
