Hello Friends,
Somehow none of you seemed to get the email we sent from the hospital over the weekend. I'm sure you can blame us and our apparent incompetence in pressing the send button to our perpetual state of sleep deprivation! Anyway, here are a few details and pics regarding our n
ew addition to the family. :)
I turned in my last final (Global Mgmt) on Thursday the 21st at 3:15 PM. That night I got a massage and went out for some spicy Shobu Shobu. I thought "hey, I'm already five days past my due date, why not live a little?" That night at about 1:20 AM I woke up to some hard contractions. I was trying to time them but it was really hard. I woke Scottie up when I started to feel nauseous, right around 1:50. We started driving and by that point I was thinking "Why did I choose American Fork Hospital?? My epidural is so far away!" The whole car ride felt like one long contraction. We finally arrived, though, and Scottie said "I'm going to get you a wheelchair" and I thought to myself "No, I can walk. Wait, can I walk? Oh this hurts!!!" and by then he was back. We got to the second floor where my midwives were waiting and the elevator opened and I said "Hello. I need an epidural". They said "Ok but lets check you first". They put me on the bed where I asked for one again and they said no and told me to push. Scottie says that I then said "Ok I'll push but then can I get an epidural?" :) We arrived at the hospital at 2:25 AM and I had Lance at 2:38 AM. Naturally!
His full name is Lawrence Sky Antonelli Waterbury and he was 8 lbs 0 oz and 19 inches long at birth. He is amazing and we are totally in love. :) Each day the eating thing gets a little better. Its been a pretty busy week all around. We got a job this week as the Community Aides in our campus quad and then Scottie got called to be in the ward Bishopric. That means that he helps out the leader of our congregation each week now. So its a little bit overwhelming but we are so grateful that we have each other. Good luck to each of you as we begin this summer. We wil
l miss you all, except for Keeler, Ammon and Bad Ash. We want to hang out with you three as soon as we start telling the days apart again.
Here are some pics.
Love
Nancy and Scottie
