You probably heard the big news...Ethan Samuel Magers arrived on Friday, May 30th!

I won't get into the gory details, but here is a quick play-by-play of my labor and delivery:
*I began having contractions around 10am
*Called the doctor's office around 10:45am
*Calls to Justin and Dad were made at 11am
*Dad and Alanna headed to Santa Cruz at 11:45am
*Arrived at the hospital at noon
*The doctor ruptured my membranes at 1pm
*Ethan arrived at 1:31pm
*He was 8 pounds, 6 ounces and 20 inches
*Delivered the little guy without pain meds (go me!)

We came home from the hospital yesterday around noon and are settling in. Justin and I are definitely feeling sleep deprived, but that's no surprise. I will add more photos soon. Need to go attend to my kids...wow, I can now say kids, plural!

Only a week until my due date! We are anxiously awaiting the little guy's arrival. When I saw my doctor on the 22nd, she guessed that I wouldn't make it to my next appointment (tomorrow). Justin and my parents were convinced he was going to come over the weekend, but I guess he has other plans! Now Justin wants him to make an appearance tomorrow, so both kids are born on dates that are prime numbers...what can I say, he's an "engi-nerd."

We will keep you posted!
