Welcome to the World!!!!

Wow. What a day. So we get awakened at 5:00 am on the nose with a monster contraction. Melissa thinks that her water has broken but wasn't sure. So we called in and the hospital said to come in.

So we get there at 5:30. The nurse checked her out for a while and then said that they were moving her into a room. However, she wasn't sure she was feeling a head.

7:00 am. - Doc comes in, does the ultrasound, and sure enough, Nathan is trying to come out bottom first. He decides to go in for the c-section.

8:00 - Mel is on the table

8:31 Nathan Westley Bilyeu is born.

He's doing wonderfully. 8 lbs. 4 oz. 19 1/2 inches. He's a pretty calm baby so far, barely even crying while going through the whole cleaning thing and the vitamin shot.

Melissa is also doing better than expected for a c-section. She is already up and moving and walking down the hall.

Anyway, I had to come home to post this for the family since there is no internet access for the public at the hospital. More details to come.
