Yep, those are Eddie's stats!
Now, sit back and relax for the story will be entertaining.
So, last Tuesday Andrea went in for her appointment and the Dr. checks her and says, "Whoa! There's his head" she was dialated to a 2. So, for the rest of the week she decides to take it easy because Scott was on call all week.
Without too many details, before Sunday night Scott had worked 100 hours at the Ranch and had dealt with one colicing horse, a death of another horse, and many other situations while on-call.
So, 10:30 p.m. rolls around and three students decide it is a great idea to run away from the ranch. Scott is on the ERT at the ranch and thus was involved in chasing and relocating them. It took all night and into early Monday afternoon to catch them. So, after being up for around 30 straight hours he came home and slept for 2.5 hours.
While Scott was sleeping Andrea started having contractions every half-hour and then they started getting closer and closer together.
(Oh yeah, by the way, Monday was our 9th Wedding Anniversary!) At around 5 p.m. Andrea comes in and wakes Scott up and plans to go to dinner for their anniversary. As Scott is showering her contractions get within three minutes of one another so, Scott's shower was cut a bit short.
It was a good thing that Nanna (Scott's Mom) had come to help get things ready because it was quite a rush getting out of town and headed to Richfield.
On the way to Richfield Andrea decided to go and get things checked out at the hospital. After about one hour of being at the hospital and finding Andrea progressing from a 4 to a 5 in that hours they kept her there.
As Andrea and Scott rested from Scott's long day and Andrea's labor through most of the night, at to the impressive prediction from the Doctor, at about 4:30 a.m. Andrea got an epideral and at 6:19 Edward was born.
Andrea and Eddie are doing great! Here's some pictures:
