...and then there were 5!

Brandon James Boyer decided to make his fast appearance into this world.

He was born May 5, 2011 at 1:25am and was 8 pounds 2 ounces and 20.5 inches.
The short version of his birth is this:
1. My water broke 10:50pm on Wednesday night
2. We called Mrs. P to come over and stay the night on our couch at 11:22pm
3. She was at our front door at 11:30
4. 11:50pm, we were in the car driving to the hospital
5. 12:01am, I texted to close friends and family members, "We're off to a Cinco de Mayo part @ the hospital! Will keep you posted."
6. Jim has video of me at 12:45am, looking like a beached whale, sitting in the hospital bed saying, "I wonder if he'll hold out until the clock starts with a 2? Our other two kids were born with the clock starting with a 2." Numbers, I can't get away from them.
7. Soon after I started questioning the nurse about an epidural.
8. I believe the contractions started to get serious around 1am, and for some unknown reason, the nurse kept diverting my attention away from an epidural. Didn't make sense at the time.
9. Brandon made his debut into this world at 1:25am.
10. Thanked the good Lord for a healthy baby and for living so close to the hospital.
There is one little girl who is in heaven around here.

Mom and baby are happy and healthy.

Blogging will be shortened and sporadic. I'm sure you understand.
