I HAD A BABY!! PIP

Here is the story (and pics below)I am a teacher and to determine which day I started my maternity leave I had to take all my saved up sick days and count backwards from the end of the school year.  This made my last day of work  Wednesday, May 5th, and May 6th would be the first day off.  I was due May 11th, so that day would give us a little time to get things ready around the house.Well, fate could not have planned this better...  Since Wednesday was my last day, my husband and I stayed up until midnight watching TV since I could sleep in the next day. BUT, 2:30 in the morning my water broke!  Wasn't sure at first since this was my first baby, but we waited a little to see if I had more fluids leaking and at 4pm we decided to call the doctor. By 5am we were at the hospital and I was only 1cm. I suffered through contractions until around 10:30 when I was only 4-5 cm.  Got the epidural and EVERYTHING was soooooo much better!!  I progressed to 10cm by 1:30. Started pushing just before 2pm and at 2:47pm my son was born!Introducing Carson Dean, 7lbs. 15oz., 21.5 inches!  He is wonderful and came just in time for Mother's Day! I couldn't think of a better present! :)Carson at 30 minutes old:
