Little Austin has arrived. Megan is a big sister...again. He came on October 2nd (right in between General Conference sessions). I started labor early that morning but it was super sporadic. At one point I had the kids take a walk with me up and down our road to see if we could get something regular happening. As we were singing the intermediate hymn during the morning session of Conference I started to feel some hard contractions and then they just kept coming. We took the kids over to the Pearce's house and then headed to the hospital. I checked in at 12:33 PM and Austin was born at 1:00 PM. Sean went and got the kids to come and visit later that evening. They were all in love at first sight. And Megan and Nathan were also quite excited about my dinner in the hospital - they wanted to eat it all. She spent the next day at her best friend, Presley's house, until we got home from the hospital. Since we have been home there is NO shortage of people to love on him and hold him and help him. The kids take turns holding him all the time. Megan is actually really good with him - she has a good handle on him. I mostly make them sit down to hold him, but occasionally she will walk to bring him to me (which she LOVES to do) and she does just fine.
