Last Monday night, Lily Grace and I were headed to Montgomery to meet Mother. We were going to stay with her through Wednesday while she was at some conferences. Lily Grace and I arrived around 6:45 that night and we ate at Outback. We just finished eating when Kirsten called around 7:45 and said, "I think my water just broke!" I thought she was kidding because she was only 36 weeks pregnant!! Sure enough, her water had broke. We drove very fast home with hazard lights on until we got to the hospital in Northport. It was a very long night and long morning. After 3 redoses of an epidural, lots of pain, and pushing for about 45 minutes, 19 hours and 10 minutes after her water broke, Tucker came into this world at 2:55 pm. He was beautiful and we all feel in love with him instantly. Kirsten asked me to cut the umbilical cord which was so special to me. He weighed 6 lbs 4 oz and was 19 inches long. What a blessing sent from GOD! Tucker is very healthy and they both were able to go home Thursday. Thank you GOD for taking care of both of them and blessing us with such a sweet gift.
