It all started at 10:45 Sunday night, Katie woke up with contractions that were about 6 to 8 min apart. At about 11:30 I heard her walking around in the bathroom so I got up to see what was going on; she said that she was having strong contractions that were getting closer together so I got my watch and started to time them. At this point the contractions were more like 4 to 6 min apart so we decided to go ahead and call the hospital and tell them we were coming in. We left the house around 12:45 and drove down to the medical district, thankfully there was no traffic on the road and we made it there without any problems. Shortly thereafter we were admitted into the hospital where the nurse checked Katie and determined she was 5cm. After a while of painful contractions Katie decided it was time for the epidural and from then on out it was a waiting game. At around 12:00pm the doctor came in the room and decided it was time for Katie to start pushing, two hours later we had a beautiful baby boy!
