Happy Birthday Corbin!

One year ago today, I went to my weekly doctor appointment. It was 5 days before my due date, but I wasn't really having any contractions, so I didn't think the baby would be coming for at least another week or so. At my appointment, they found that my blood pressure was pretty high, so the doctor gave me the choice to be induced that day, or be monitored for 24 hours. Since I was already dilated to 4, I decided to be induced. So I went home to grab my bag, and a quick bite to eat. I called Clark and asked him if he wanted to have a baby today, and thought I was kidding at first. He hurried home from work, we installed the car seat, and then we headed off to the hospital. We checked in at 1 p.m. They induced me at 2 p.m., and broke my water at 5 p.m. Corbin was born at 8:58 p.m. The umbilical cord was wrapped twice around his neck, so the doctor had to quickly cut the cord (which sent blood spurting across the room. In some of the pictures you can actually see it on Clark's shirt) and get it unwrapped. After that he started crying and they cleaned him off and handed him over to me. I can't believe that a year has already passed since that day! I love my little boy, and it is so much fun watching him grow up!
