Meeting Baby Hudson

my new nephew Hudson!

I am proud to announce my new nephew Mr. Hudson Joshua is here!  He was born early Saturday morning at 5:37 am weighing 9 pounds 3 ounces and 21" long. He's so sweet and just perfect and were all having a great time getting our newborn cuddles in!
My sister went into the hospital Friday night at 8 pm to get induced, we all decided we would go up the next morning to meet the little guy and Crystal was fine with it just being her and her husband there. Well I don't sleep well as it is, and with a new nephew being born any minute, like clockwork I was up at 3:30 and started texting away soon to find out she was at an 8 and my mom was also up anxiously awaiting phone calls we made a split decision there in the middle of the night to go up to be with my sister. At this point Crystal was a little bummed she didn't have her entourage in the waiting room and was happy to have us, so happy in fact that she invited my mom and I to witness the amazing miracle of birth. We made it just in time, they were just waiting on the doctor to arrive, so we snapped some quick pics and it was time to get the show on the road! I dont know what to say about it, it was amazing.... ohhh so amazing, I cant explain the unimaginable amount of love there in that room. At every push I had instant tears streaming down my face for what my sister was doing and the little baby about to meet this world. Now... as amazing as it was, I, myself having to do this in 4 short months had to take a step back and some deep breaths because as amazing as our bodies are, its not always the prettiest sight.
I will never forget seeing his head.... but you see that in the movies they show you at childbirth class, the crazy thing to me was after his head was out (which they just let hang there for a while) he stuck his little arm way out like he was waving to us all, it was then I realized there was a whole body coming out following that head! Crystal got to pull him out and I think I'll have to request that this time as well, it was such a neat thing to see a mother pulling her son from the womb.
I don't know how we do it, I don't know how I did it, but as gross as it is, I cant wait to do it again!

Luke, Will and I went to go see baby Hudson and the family last night but with all the excitement and the boys throwing a dance party I didn't get any pictures. Plenty to come soon I'm sure. Welcome to this world sweet baby Hudson, you are very loved.
