| Love this photo |
 |
| Jonno helped me through my contractions -Out for a walk in the hallway trying to get this baby moving! |
 |
| Walked to visit my in laws Bob and Susie who were in the waiting area |
 |
| Eventually I dilated up to 7 cm and Betsy, my midwife, said we'd better in the tub to prepare for the baby to come! Jonno joined me for our swimming party |
After about 15 hours of labor, I made it to the final stretch and our little Teddy finally arrived:

| Teddy's feet were at least a big toe longer than all the other new babies on the floor (They put these little papers outside your door after your baby was born and played a harp song) |

I LOVE the pictures. ALL of them. I just love your new family and Teddy. Isn't it just the best experience in the world? The after is tough, but that 10 minutes of meeting your baby for the first time is why I can't bear to think that Brynn might be our last. :) I'm so happy that you and Jon have finally been able to experience that and will experience all the joys that come from watching your child grow up. Keep posting, sending me pics, whatever you can do so I can see him. I love him so much!!
