My water broke at 1:15 AM on 12-29-10. At 10:49 later that morning Mason Ryan Graves blessed us with his appearance... Finally. Of course, he was face up instead of face down, I had to push for 2.45 hours.Since you were in the birth canal for so long, you had a pretty severe cone head, which freaked your Dad out pretty bad. You were perfect from the first second. Daddy cut your umbilical cord. Everything went well with my recovery and by the next morning I was up and showered, feeling great. By lunch Friday we were headed home as a family! You get the hiccups a lot, just like me, and they make you so mad. You weighed 7.77 pounds, and was 20 inched long (cone head included :) ). You were a little jaundiced, but by 1-5-11 you were all better. Your Dad stayed home with me from Wed through Sunday then he went back to work. It was so hard for him. You have turned him into a big Mush ball. Today is 1-8-11 and you lost your umbilical stump! And thank goodness your circumcision is finally better. That was so hard for me. I didn't realize how much it would hurt you.... I found out today that you have my taste in music, you especially seem to like Hootie and the Blowfish! I am almost back to normal now, so I am thoroughly enjoying being at home with you. Your Dad has been amazing! He loves you more than you will ever know, and almost as much as I do! We will be such a happy family.
