I have not blogged in forever! The last few weeks of pregnancy were hard on me. I was still working and trying to make it through each day keeping my sanity. I love my 7th graders but they were restless those last few weeks...Just like I was. I'm so happy to not be pregnant anymore and actually hold my sweet baby boy in my arms now! Mason Wayne Murphree made his arrival on May 26th. We induced labor at 9:30am and I was in labor until 9:30pm. Mason's head was wedged in my pelvic bone and not going to fit through...I felt like I needed to push but it wasn't going to happen. The doctor said we needed to do a c-section. I knew it was a possibility because this same thing happened to my mom when she was pregnant with me, and we are built the same. We have small frames and do not have wide hips at all. So, I took the news pretty well. I was feeling awful and ready to hold that little gift from God. Mason was born at 10:31pm, he weighed 8lbs (which was exactly what the Dr. had predicted), and was 19inches long. This was the first time I saw him and still tear up thinking about that moment:
Proud Daddy...He was so Happy:
He is such a blessing and I cannot beleive how much I love him already! In the OR still getting all checked out:
When we finally made it to the Recovery room the nurse and doctor checked me out and then the whole crowd of people who I love and love us rushed in to see the baby. This was at 11:45pm and they had been there all day. I truly feel loved and know there are a lot of people that care about us! Here is a few pictures from the recovery room.
