Baby Reagan is here!

Sorry it took so long to post the stats, as you can imagine my life has changed quite a bit over the past week. And guess what?! Once again, my batteries are dead, so I have to charge them before I can upload my pictures to the computer. NOTE TO SELF: buy new rechargeables!!!!
So I got induced at 10:00 p.m on Jan. 2nd. They put this weird little pill in my mouth and let it dissolve... well 2 pills 3 hours apart. So, 6 hours later they finally start me on pit (that's the nickname..not sure how it's spelled.) and then 30 minutes later boom here's baby.
It was nice to only push for 10 minutes, but because the pit made me progress so fast, my epideral wore off and can I just say "Ouch." Natural birth is for retards. And you can quote me on that. But at least it went fast. So at 8:46 a.m on January 3rd our little lady was born.
Reagan Isabella Fowler weighed in at a whopping 8.8 lbs and was 21 inches. She's pretty darned cute. Her and Kennedy look nothing alike, but Kennedy sure does like her "sister." Cutest word ever, when coming from K. She's a good baby and sure does nurse well...thank goodness.
Tyler is a proud papa, and is taking really good care of Kennedy, as always. Here's hoping that Kennedy will transition okay. So far so good, but cross your fingers. Pictures to come, I promise!
