Happy 6th Birthday Brady!!
As I write this, I am reflecting back to 6 years ago...
Bryan and I were SO excited to become parents. It was almost time.
We waited all day for the call to come in for the induction.
It never came.
Finally, around 4pm they called and told us to come in at 7:30pm
We cleaned house. (It was already clean)
We made sure everything is ready. (because he soooo needed his room immediately)
We went to Applebees for our last childless meal.
We arrived at the hospital at 7:30pm.
They told us they left us a message not to come.
But, since we were already there...we could stay.
Thank goodness.
I wasn't going home.
It took all night.
And part of the next day.
He was finally born at 1:36pm.
It was overwhelming.
And, exciting.
And, super exhausting.
6 years ago today.
Unbelievable...
