A year ago today...Aedan Micah


A year ago today, I went to my 38 week doctor appointment. The previous week, I had been in the hospital due to my high blood pressure. All week long, my blood pressure was high as well. I had a late doctor appointment, I think around 3:00 or so. When I showed Doctor Gernt my blood pressures from the week, she said, "I think you're going to have this baby sooner then September 6th (which was my scheduled date for the c section)...like tonight or tomorrow." She told me to go on over to the hospital, and I asked her if I could go home first to take care of Josiah's arrangements. I went home and told Ryan that we were going to have our baby that day or the next! Ryan quickly packed and took Josiah over to the Lowhorns. We went to the hospital and got admitted and stuff. A little later Dr. Gernt came and noticed my contractions were picking up. She was going to do the c section the next day, but decided to go ahead and do it that evening (as opposed to like 3:00 in the morning). They prepped me for surgery (which I thoroughly disliked). A little later after cutting, and moving around of organs...Aedan Micah was born! We are so blessed to have him. He is my baby of grace!
