Visitors

The Reveal!

Meeting Caleb Mrdutt

A few short naps and we are wide awake. Caleb has been in and out with short little cry's and cute little sneezes. Katie and I expect to be in the hospital through Sunday and would prefer visitors at the hospital instead of at home (time for settlign into routines). For those who are interested the Mrdutt Clan is shacked up at Sacred Heart Hospital in Eau Claire, Room 318. We hope to get pictures updated later today if we can get the right technology here to upload them. As for now we are still enjoying Calebs wonderful birthday.

Little Man Is Here!!

Katie and I are thrilled to announce the arrival of Caleb Gregory Mrdutt. He arrived At 5:27am weighing in at 8 lb 13oz. 22 inches long. Caleb has a full head of dark hair, blue eyes, Mrdutt head, and Henrichs nose. The C-section went perfect, mom and baby are doing great. We are glad to welcome visitors around 10:00am. We are going to be resting shortly. Later

Enough pushing

After 3 steady hours of steady intensive labor contractions our Dr. has decided it is time to set-up for a c-section. Baby and Katie are doing fine, Dr. just wants to move things along before a problem could arise. Should be seeing baby around five but expect next post near 6:30.

June Baby?

It appears that our little man would rather be a June baby over a May. Our Dr. decided to came in and see how we are progressing, he was very greatfull we gave him the afternoon off soo he could get cought up on projects around his home. Now he is here and waiting with us for our little man. He has placed an internal monitor to measure the intensity of the contractions. This measurement will tell us if they need to alter drug levels to get our little man moving a little faster. As of right now, he is just hanging out comfy as can be. So hopefully we can get things moving faster. Go Brewers.

Still waiting.....

We are just hanging out and waiting, watching some tv and trying to rest a bit. According to the monitor I am still contracting away; kinda nice not having to feel them. We did have a nice chat with our resident doctor, nurse and medical student earlier. I asked how many other woman are in labor right now besides me. They said there are two others. I asked if I'm the slowest progressing but was surprised to hear that the nurses have a bet that I will be the first one to deliver. Our nurse is betting around 11pm. I guess we will just have to wait and see. I should have another check here soon to see how I have progressed the last couple of hours. So at this point, not much has changed. Little man is taking his time. :)
