He is finally HERE!!!!

After a painful but quick labor, little Easton is finally here. We are so excited, Emilie was a little nervous to see me in the bed like I was but after she saw Easton she was all over him. I had been having contractions since about 5 last night but nothing too strong. So I went to bed and I woke Daniel up at 2 and said I think we need to go in. Thanks to the Whitneys they got up and drove 30 min to come get Emilie and Daniel and I headed to the Hospital. I was having very regular contractions but when I got here I was only dilated to a 1. Thinking that I would have a long labor they just kept getting worse and 2 hours later I was a 4 so I asked where is my epidural. They admitted me and then from then on just kept getting stronger and closer and I was moving faster than the nurses could. I ended up having Easton before they could get the epidural so it wasn't a very enjoyable delivery going all natural. But all in all it is over and we have a beautiful little boy. Just thought I would let you all know, we are very excited to welcome him into our little family.
These are just some pictures taken with my phone so not great but at least you can see a picture. When I get home I'll post more.
