1:52pm - The Penuels are pleased to introduce you to Cole Phillip Penuel. He was born at 1:06pm (after only 6 minutes of pushing!) and came out weighing 7lbs 4oz. Looks a lot like his big brother did when he was born (but without the wild hair)!
12:58pm - It's on. We're pushing!
12:29pm - Anesthesia kicking in. Everything is chill. Just noticed this bracelet that Alli has to wear because her lower half is numb. Thought it was funny.
12:19pm - Check out our smokin' hot cheerleaders! Just got some extra anesthesia. We're going fast...May not be back on the blog before baby comes. Best guess...2 or 3 more hours!
12:00pm - Dilated to 8cm. The goal is 10cm. We're moving right along! Looks like this guy is a little more eager to meet us than Chapman was!
11:45am - Just checked Facebook and got some encouragement from our friends, the Petersons (pictured above), down in College Station. Thanks for all the comments, we're reading them all and are grateful to have loved ones to share this day with!
11:15am - Dilated to 5+ cm. Progressing right along. Flipping channels in hospital room. Randomly, it is our first time seeing Jonas Brothers: 3D Concert Experience is on TV. Super fun feeling seeing yourself on TV. Reconsidering naming the baby Jonas instead of Cole (not true).
10:20am - Contractions starting to get painful. More epidural, more better. We're enjoying chatting with our nurse and our first visitor has arrived! Welcome Aunt Jen!
9:30am - Epidural is in. Administering minimal doses. Contractions getting stronger. Watching the Today Show. All good.
8:30am - Water Broken. 3 cm dilated. No picture available.
7:49am - Battle Stations Ready (See Picture Above). Alli's in her spot and I'm manning my post behind the laptop. Our nurse is Amanda and she already seems great! We're both excited and expectant for a day filled with joy!
7:30am - Check-In
6:30am - Call Labor & Delivery to confirm bed availability
Midnight Wednesday - Nothing to eat or drink (including water, ice chips, mints, and gum)
