A Son is Born!

i had another baby!
James Lukas Crane was born August 24, 2011 at 11:29 pm
He is such a little darling ~ I am SO happy (and glad I got through that c-section)
I think I might burst!

This birthing' was a bit rough - went to the hospital after my water broke at 11:30 am, (I was leaving for an 11 am dr.'s appointment, LOL), dilated a little at a time, finally made it to 9.5 cm around 9 pm, pushed for an hour, and then we all decided it was time to let the dr.'s take over. An hour later and after a very long c-section (to me) my baby boy was in my exhausted arms!
There are more interesting details I've left out, but I don't want to get into all that, just in case y'all are easy queasy ;)

Been extremely sore, and a bit apprehensive about this healing process since I've never had surgery before and had no idea what to expect. I also have a hard time limiting myself - so I've felt as if I've "pulled myself apart" on several occasions over the course of the last 13 days
Apparently, I'm okay though, and feeling better each day
(and trying oh so hard to be good to myself!).

Anywho, here are a few pics of my precious son, James ;)
