He's here!

Today at 9:57am I had the honor of witnessing the most amazing birth of Joseph Wiebe. What an adorable little bundle of joy! He was 7lbs 12oz (I think) and almost 21 inches long. He was 11 days overdue but I wonder how tiny he would have been if hed come out 11 days ago? He may not have been much over 6lbs. He is perfect. I am so happy that Sirena allowed me to be there. Its an amazing experience to be in a room and witness the birth of this tiny little person. It is a pretty special experience. Though not for everyone I am sure. But I love it!

I wanted very badly for Sirena to be with me for Jonahs birth but man, it just wasnt in the cards for us I tell ya. She was with me in the morning for the first gel, we walked, then second gel. Nothing. So I went home. Labored for the next 24 hours. Hurt bad but still no progress. So I went in and had my water broke. Unfortunately Sirena had come down with the Norwalk virus of all things!!! So she was very sick and couldnt be there.

I am so thankful for Jon. I couldnt imagine having to go through that without him, but to have your best friend, another woman who has gone through the same experience, at your side is uncomparible. On that note. If and when I do have another baby I am still counting on YOU Sirena! You and Jon are my team. And I think I will definitley have a photographer as well. Perhaps Starla if she is game??? Anyways I'll cut that daydream short and move on...bye for now.

OK Im really sorry if I should have waited to post Josephs pic Sirena...there is probably only like 1 other person who reads this blog anyways. Hahaha!
