Andrea got a call yesterday that it was time for her to be induced. She picked me up and we got to the hospital around 3:30pm. She got checked in, settled into the room, and hooked up to the monitor.
After about 3 or 4 hours the doctors came in and let us know that she was having contractions or irritations, that the baby was becoming distress when she did, and that they suggested doing a C-section to bring the little guy into the world. Andrea really didn't want to do C-section since she wouldn't be at the same hospital with him after, but they assured us that he would probably be at Good Sam with her at least until she was released. That calmed Andrea's fears and we went in for the C-section. 
Owen was born just after 11pm, weighed 7 lbs 1 oz, and was 20.5 inches long. All vitals are strong and he is doing well. The doctors just spoke with her and let her know that they want to transfer him today to Phoenix Children's Hospital, and as you can imagine, Andrea is crying and upset since she wanted to be with the little dude until she was released. Hey, at least she has incentive to get some rest and heal up fast!
