Samuel is here!!

We got to the hospital bright and early at 5am. We listened to our roommate whine for 1 hour and 40 minutes about being able to feel her contractions (she didn't have an epidural yet), that they hurt (the anesthesiologist explained that she was in labor and that labor hurts) and that she needed more phenergan for her pain. We then got to sit there and have 3 doctors argue it out of who gets the OR first; us, our whiny roommate or the lady down the hall who had been in labor all night. Dr. Bill won and I had a needle in my back by 6:40 for my 7am

surgery. This was the sign right outside of the door as we went in.
