KOBY is here!!


January 28th - 6 days over due, and Megan is feeling pretty uncomfortable.

4:00pm - Go into the hospital for first dose of gel to soften the cervix in preparation to be induced. Contractions start and continue to get stronger.

10:00pm - Went back to the hospital for second dose of gel. When the nurse checked to see how Megan was progressing, she said she was dilated to a 4 and admitted us into the hospital. No induction necessary!

January 29th
1:30am - Megan was dilated to a 6 and the contractions were getting pretty painful and she requested an epidural. It took over 45 minutes for the doctor to come and administer it to her though. So she was dilated to about a 7 when she finally got it.

2:15am - Epidural is in, and it was like night and day. Megan and I watched Miss Congeniality. It was that or "Down with Love."

4:05am - Megan is fully dilated, and begins pushing.

4:50 am- Doctor comes in to catch him...and

4:52am - Koby James Huntington is born!! He weighed 7lbs 9oz, and was 20 inches long.

I know all parents think their babies are the cutest, but he really is the cutest baby! We LOVE him!

Koby is such a cute name! and he is SUCH a cute little baby, he looks really big compared to Tye, well I guess he is, and I LOVE that picture you guys have of him on the side. His little face expression is so cute! I wish we lived in Provo so we could get together and have crying baby sessions together! Megan you look very good after having a baby and you are AMAZING for making it to a 7, wow, I hope everything is going well!
