He is here!

Yeah! Landon has arrived! I was getting anxious waiting to be taken back to the operating room earlier today. When the guy came to put in the spinal tap, he brought a little cup of fluid and a syringe of fluid. I chugged the fluid and he put the stuff in my IV and within a few minutes I became very on edge. It made me feel like I needed to have the surgery done at that moment because I was gonna rip some heads off if not. I went to the restroom while Bob held the IV and I said to him-"I feel like I am about to have a nervous breakdown about this surgery". He reassured me that it would be fine and that it was about to begin. Once I was in the OR they quickly got me all ready to go. I had a rush of nausea when they were taking out organs but other than that it went smoothly. When she pulled him out, Dr. Starck said, "Wow! Look at all that hair and it looks just like Bob!" I couldn't believe the amount of hair he was rockin! 10 fingers, 10 toes and healthy-what more could you ask for! Back in the room, I began itching my face and nose uncontrollably. Our nurse told me that was common for when the drugs start to wear off and that she could give me something for it. I am still itching like a maniac and anticipating my next dose to help it out at 10:45pm. Nursing has started out very well and we hope that it continues that way with him! I am a little sore but other than that I feel like I could walk out the of hospital today and go on with my daily routine. Dr. Starck used staples this time to close instead of stitches to see if the scar would be smaller than the last. Hope she's right-I asked her for a quick tummy tuck while she was down therebut she didn't have time for that in her schedule today! We have just been cuddling with the new little dude and I have to admit it still has yet to sink in. We are now a family of 4. Please keep us in your thoughts and prayers! I am crashin for the night--more pictures will follow soon!
