Baby Grayson is here!!


Grayson Paul Hayes

March 15, 2009 at 6:30 pm

8 lbs. 5 oz.

20 inches long


Grayson was born Sunday night after 1 sleepless night and 2 trips to the hospital!

Mollie's contractions started Sat. night around 9pm and steadily progressed throughout the night. We went to the hospital at 5:30 am and were sent home with pain meds. Mollie was only dilated 1cm and they thought it was probably false labor. Well...3 hours later (and lots of pain!)we were back to the hospital to discover that she had dilated to 5 cm!!! "Let's go have a baby!!" was the doctor's response. They immediately admitted her and got her epidural started. Mollie was extremely tired all day Sunday from not sleeping at all the night before so the doctor wanted her to get lots of rest so she'd be ready for the pushing. The epidural was great!! After waiting and waiting...she was ready to push at 5:45pm. Grayson was born at 6:30pm!!! We were so happy that everything went so well for the delivery and our healthy baby boy was born!!


We have enjoyed every single second just holding him and staring at him!!! It truly is amazing!
We will have more pictures and updates posted soon!!
