Quick birth story & pip

Sorry it has taken me so long to update, it's been a whirlwind.  We have decided on the name Walker Morgan.  I think many of you have seen pics on FB, but for those who haven't here are a few. 

 A quick birthstory....  We went back to Triage Friday night about midnight.  I had thankful changed from a 1.5 to a 3.5, in the 2 3 hours since we left.  Once we got upstairs and into our room and I got my epiduryl I was a 5.  Things were moving quickly.  About 2 hours later while she was checking me I went from a 7 to a 9, during a strong contraction, this was about 5 am.  At one point about 10 minutes later his heartrate dropped pretty bad, once it was back up she checked me due to severe pressure and I was fully dialated!  We started pushing a little after 6, with a few breaks due to me being completley exhausted.  I was trying to sleep between, which was a joke as they were about 30 sec apart.  I could feel alot, which was good and bad, they had to top off my epiduryl acouple times.   Doc came in about 10 to 7, and Walker was born at 7:04am.
