Having this baby boy turned out to be quite the journey for all of us. I won't be too detailed but I will hit some of the highlights of what our little boy went through in order to get here today! We got to the hospital at 1:00am in the morning to be induced,I was about a week past my due date and only dialated to a 1+. Eventually my water was broke and things started from there. I got an epidural after about 41/2 hours of labor with pitocen. At 3:50pm they finally told me I could start pushing. So I pushed for two hours and he was not coming, then before we knew it his heart rate went clear down to 40, obviously something was wrong.I was taken into an emergency c-section so quick that they didn't even have enough time to suite up and kade was unable to come back with us. They had the baby out in 3 min. flat. and if they hadn't our little Emmitt wouldn't be with us today. They found him posterior with the cord wrapped around is arm once and his neck twice. He was blue when he first came out and had a few problems from all of the trauma. They had him connected to everything. He is a strong baby, now here with us, and as healthy as a horse. He is already a month old and at his two weeks appointment wieghed 10lbs 8oz. We are so thankful for all of the prayers and extra help that we recieved during and after his delivery! I seriously don't know what I would do without family and the priesthood:) Thanks again everyone and we will keep you in touch with our new family!

We went to Kanab for Halloween and Emmitt was able to see Grandma Jean for the first time:)
