It's a BOY!!!
Tomm and I celebrated our 4th anniversary in the hospital. Thomas Chatman Simmons Jr. was born August 23rd at 1:40 pm. He was 8 lbs and 21 inches. He has lots of cute dark hair and very kissable chubby cheeks! Here are some pics of before we went to the hospital and the days following his arrival...
The last pregnant picture! YAY!

At the hospital...Our room came with a view. This was a guilty pleasure... we were able to see the helicopters land but we also felt bad for whom ever went for a ride.
Labor and Delivery...My doctor induced my labor at 7:30 am Monday morning. I started feeling those contractions RIGHT away (not fun... suddenly the helicopter wasn't so awesome). They gave me my epidural at 10:30 am and not a minute too soon. I was quite a piece of work at that point! I sent Tomm out of the room and told him not to come back without a doctor and an epidural. Once I got the shot everyone's day got better! For the next 3 hours and 10 minutes we were all blissfully unaware of the remaining contractions. At 1:15 pm I was ready to push and my Doctor was MIA... He finally showed up at 1:30 and Little Thomas was born 3 pushes later. AH sweet bliss!
The second he was born I was able to hold him.
Proud Daddy!

My amazing Doctor and Nurse! There are no words to express my appreciation!
