Cameron Axel is here!!!





So Katie had contractions all night last night and didn't sleep a wink.  I started OB call at 8 this morning.  I called at about 9 to see how she was feeling and the contractions were getting stronger.  At 11 she wanted me to come get her and bring her in to the hosptial, thank goodness Scott & Dolly are here and that we live so close to the hospital.  We were overjoyed when her doctor decided to keep her and Katie was fully dilated within a few hours.  It took 2 contractions to push him out...with a little help from the vacuum.  His heart rate plummeted just like it did with Cordon, but this time she was fully dilated when it happened so she could just push him out, unlike with Cordon where we had to cut him out.  He was fine and immediately started crying loud enough that even Cordon was put to shame.  Mom and baby are fine and Katie says she only feels 7.5 months pregnant now.

So Darren looks excited, not so sure about Cordon. Just one request, please explain the origin of the name.
