Well, he is finally here! We got to the hospital just before 7 AM and they didn't do anything until about 10:00. Needless to say, I was pretty annoyed. They broke my water then not much happened, so we started the pitocin about an hour and a half later. I was feeling great and making it through all the contractions pretty easily. At about 1:20PM (during transition, of course) I decided I better go ahead with the epidural. Too bad for me I went from 8 cm to 10cm AND PUSHING in about 10 minutes. NO DRUGS! AAAAAAAAAA! I wanted drugs so bad. After lots of tears, screaming, and thinking I might die, my little man made his entrance. At 1:50PM Owen Thomas Peterson was born! He was our biggest so far--7 lbs 11 oz, 20 1/4 inches. We struggled with the name even after he got here, but both of us really felt like that was the right name for our little guy. I think he looks like his sister, but I want to know what everyone else thinks. Do you think there is family resemblance, and with whom? Here are some pics (we will get more when they finally give him back to us) to start your deliberations.
