Only 4 days to go until my 2nd son's 5th birthday and to celebrate this milestone I have been recording my top 10 memories of him. So here is memory #4....
With the recent weather turning on the cold side I can't help but to be reminded of his birth. My husband had just recently been transferred to Alaska where we packed up all of our belongings and with me being enormously pregnant we made the very long move. We had just moved into our house on October 7th and I was due on October 31st. Needless to say I was frantically trying to get everything unpacked and settled before our precious boy decided to arrive.
In the morning hours of October 30th I informed my hubbie that it was indeed time to go. We got all of our stuff together and our oldest son in the car and headed to the hospital. On the way in I have the bright idea that Jason should stop at Wal-matt and buy some magazines because you never really know how long these things will really take and I didn't want him to get bored. So he stopped. While he was in the store I had 3 massive contractions. I kept thinking what is taking so long. When I looked at the clock he had been in there less than 10 minutes. I then informed Jason that we should probably skip taking our oldest son to the babysitters and just go right to the hospital.
Upon arriving at the hospital I knew things were serious. They got me in a room and then left. I immediately told Jason to get a doctor in the room. He had to call 4 tines to get the doctor into the room. During that time our babysitter also came and got Cale. This proved to be in just in time. Within 10 minutes I delivered Ky. They had no
time for any kind of monitors or an I.V. He just arrived.
