Brecken's Birth

It's been seven weeks since Brecken's big debut, so I guess a new post is way past due. My water

  broke and came in torrents at about 1:30 am on Monday, August 10. I was having pretty bad pains

    in my back, but didn't really know about back contractions so I wasn't sure if I was in labor yet. The     nurses told us we had an hour, so we went to Burger King (it was the only place open). My fluid

    would not stop coming and by the time we reached the hospital my Crocs were full of fluid (TMI?).     I dumped my shoes out just before I reached the hospital entrance, and when I walked in the nurses

    were laughing and told me they all just watched me dump my fluid out on the surveillance camera!

    I was known as 'the girl who dumped her fluid out of her shoes' for the next two days. Other than

    that, labor was pretty uneventful and our Brecken was born 10 hours later.

JP waiting for our newest addition-still not sure about this girl business
