In the wee hours this morning, I woke Brock up and told him it was time to get to the hospital! I had been having pretty regular contractions for 3 hours, so I called my doctor and she told me to head in. I am so happy to say that I had another easy labor (I will also add an Amen for epidurals!). My water broke on its own, and after 1 push, Drake Vincent Vaughters was born! He was 6 lbs, 12 oz and 20 inches long. He nursed right away and seems much more laid back than my Miss Mia, although time will tell. I probably won't be able to upload pictures until I get home on Wednesday, but I wanted to post a quick update. He looks like Mia in the eyes, but his little mouth and nose are different than hers. He has dark, fuzzy hair and is so, so sweet! I can't wait for Mia to see him. We thank God for a healthy little baby boy and a smooth delivery. I was supposed to be induced on Thursday, but I am sure glad he came a little early!
So we compromised on the name, because Brock has been calling him Vinnie ever since we found out we were having a boy (as many of you know!). But Vinnie Vaughters didn't fly in my book, so we used it for his middle name so that can still be Brock's nickname for him - after all, that's how he has been referring to him this entire time! I can't wait to post pictures of him for you all to see... I'll do it as soon as I get a chance! :) Thanks for checking in on us!
