Feb 5th how you got here!

So as soon as I got home on the 3rd after they took me off the pitosen the contractions stopped almost immediately. They started back up on Thursday Feb 4th sometime in the evening. Again nothing consistent but painful enough. My mom and I went to a Relief Society activity and was having some pretty hard contractions so Nana and I went home when it was over and I went straight to bed. I was not going back to the hospital to be sent home again. Max woke me up at 4:00am on Friday morning, just because and as I went into him room to get him. As I lifted him up my water broke, and so dad and I went to the hospital for a third time. They hooked me yet again and we waited for you to come. You came out in 8 min from the time I started pushing and you were lot bigger than we expected you to be. When you came out both dad and Dr. Hoffman announced you were a boy, I have to say that I was surprised but not at the same time. When they weighed you I couldn't believe how big you were, a big 9 lb 3 oz baby wow. When they put you in the little incubator table to clean you up, they had to put up the plastic sides because you kept moving yourself to the edge and you turned yourself completely around. When they put up the sides you grabbed on to it and pulled yourself to the edge, I can't believe how strong you are. You were born in the same room that Max was born in on the same day of the week so that was exciting to have that happen. We had a fantastic nurse named Stephani, I wish that I had gotten a picture of her with you but we didn't. She was really fantastic though and she was also our nurse when we came in on Wednesday.
We had a hard time picking a name for you. I really love the names Benjamin and Samuel but you just didn't fit either of those names. So we spent the next couple of days trying to figure out what we were going to name you. Stephani kept throwing out all kinds of names but nothing that we loved. We got on the Internet and when Nana came she also threw out some names. So I really don't know where the name Brock came from, if it was from the Nurse, Nana or the Internet. So we had it in the back of our heads and they wouldn't let us out of the hospital and Brock just really suit you and so we went with it. We decided to use William as your middle name, you are named after my dad, grandpa Bill. We are so glad that you are here after waiting which seemed like forever. We adore you and what a good little guy you are. Paige and Max just love you. I was a little bit worried about Max and what he would think of you but he took to you so well. He just wants to hug you and hold you and kiss you. I love it and I love you. Welcome to our family, we are so blessed to have you.
