Well, today you made your entrance into the world! We are so thankful that you made it here safely..praising God for your safe arrival.
We got up this morning and spent some time with Josiah, Soph and Ky before we headed to the hospital. When we got there, we found out they were behind schedule. I was kind of expecting that since there were three other couples at pre-op on Friday. When we were told they we were behind, we found out there were 6 c-sections scheduled for that day plus all the other normal deliveries...busy day for the doctors and nurses!!
We were finally brought back to the OR just before 11am and by 11:12am we heard your strong cries...still one of the sweetest sounds! The doctors and nurses were absolutely wonderful. Dr. Speyer was great just like with Kyrie. Mommy had a little harder time with feeling nauseous and actually got sick. Wasn't much fun, but knew it was worth it to have you here. We spent a little over an hour in recovery before getting settled into our room. It took the longest time to see you after taking you to the nursery to have you checked out. It was so sweet to finally be able to hold you.
Mommy did have some issues with my oxygen levels being low and had to be on oxygen for a few hours. They think when I got sick some junk got into my lungs. So thankful that after much prayer and some breathing exercises along with the oxygen that things got better.
We are so glad that you are here and can't wait to see who God has created you to be. We love you, Richard Tobias, and are so thankful God chose us to be your parents.
Here are some pictures from our big day!
