This past week has been a little hectic. As you can see Peyton was born this past Tuesday. On Tuesday morning I had a doctors appointment. We were going to decide what our next plan of action would be. As I was getting ready for the appointment I received a phone call. It was the doctors office saying that my doctor had resigned and that another doctor would be taking over my care (keep in mind that I was four days overdue). I was completly shocked. Thankfully I was able to speak with the other doctor and explain to him our situation and he decided to induce me later that day. Thank goodness! In a few hours we were off to the hospital. A long six hours later little Peyton was born. He has lots of hair and he looks a lot like his daddy. He is beautiful.
