The Hospital





It took four days in the hospital but Michael finally arrived on March 25th at 10:53pm. I don't think there is anything that can compare to childbirth, I know that I couldn't have done it alone. The support of Tony was monumental he was a great coach I couldn't have gotten through it without him. My sister and BFF Tiff were also a tremendous help, whether it was bringing me magazines and coffee, to sitting with me trying to distract me from the contractions, I am truly lucky to have such wonderful people in my life.

I never knew that being a mom could be so much fun and at the same time so overwhelming. My heart goes out to all the Labor & Delivery and Mother baby nurses who helped us transition. St Alexius hospital was WONDERFUL, the staff were so patient and kind to us. I'm still in awe of the experience, it will truly be one I will never forget.

Michael had several visitors his first couple days of life. His Aunt Lauren and Grandma and Grandpa Rowan came to see him on Friday morning He also was greeted by his Aunt Tiffany who was a tremendous help to his mother while she was in the hospital. Lastly he was visited by his favorite cousins, Lisa, Amy and Katie, everyone was so happy to meet him. He was only days old and so many people already loved him, how lucky are we!
