Happy Birthday Jacob

A year ago today at 2:48 p.m. this little guy was born. I checked into the hospital at 7 a.m. got my epidural around 10:30 starting pushing about 2:20 and he was born at 2:48. For those of you who don't know this or forgot, my sweet dear patient husband talked me into not finding out what we were having when we got pregnant with Jacob. I had always been totally against this and thought people were freaks that didn't find out. I didn't want to be a freak but I went along with it and waited until he was born to find out the sex. It was hard at times but I am so glad I waited. It was such an emotional and fun day. I will never forget looking at Johnny and seeing the excitement and emotion when he said "Its a boy"! At times I thought it was a girl because everything was sooo different than with Tucker but deep down I knew it was a boy. I had packed my bag for the hospital and had a boy and a girl outfit and at the last minute before we walked out the door for the hospital I took out the pink outfit. I just knew that we were having a boy. As much as I would love to have a daughter someday I could not imagine my life right now any different. I love my boys so much and feel like the luckiest girl in the world. Happy Birthday Jacob!!
