  **ADDED LANE'S ALBUM!!
  
  LANE RONNIE WHITE born July 2, 2004 at 12:18pm!! 19" (though we think they missmeasured him cause at 2 weeks he was 21 1/2"), 8 pounds, 12 ounces.
  
  PHEW! I guess its about time I update. Lane is here and amazing! I love him him so much its surreal.
  
  Here's a little story on the labor just to clue some of you in. I started having contractions at 4:30am July 2nd, woke Jack up at about 5 and we got to the hospital about 6/6:30. I dialted pretty fast while I was there and was admitted about 7:30/8. Got my epidural in around 9. They had me start pushing around 11 and out he came at 12:18pm!! Pushing was a lot easier then I thought, probably because of the epidural. Contractions though...those were the WORST THING EVER IN MY LIFE! I tore pretty bad during labor, a 4 degree tear which I guess only happens to 2% of women who do tear. Hurray for me! (Not really) Things are going very well. He did have some jaundice in the beginning and they had to put him in the hospital for 36 hours. That was terrible. We could only hold him every 3 hours (to breastfeed) and could only hold him for about 40 minutes each time. He's a pretty good baby. He may have colic or is just a real cling on and wants to be held all the time :) Jack and I are just in awe and in total love with our little creation. Motherhood is amazing. I recommend it to all women. :) To see the look on your baby's face when he finally recognizes you or stops crying just at the sound of your voice or smiles at you for the first time its all truly amazing. Better go, Grandma is done giving him a bath and he needs his momma :)
