On March 24, 2011 at 8:09am, Logan Lee Chaney entered this world. He weighed 8lbs. 4oz. and was 20.5 inches long. We could not be more thrilled to have this sweet little bundle of joy in our lives! I went in for induction on Wednesday night and expected labor and delivery to be pretty similar to Korben's, but just like during pregnancy, Logan switched things up all together during labor even though the induction process was the same. With Korben, I didn't actually go into active labor until the next morning and with Logan I went into labor right away. I had a doctors appointment that morning and there was no progress but when I checked into the hospital I was actually at a 1 and having contractions (that I couldn't feel and were detected on the monitor). I was supposed to get 2 doses of Cytotec during the night and start on Pitosin the next morning but that first dose was all Logan needed to get going! Almost immediately, I started feeling the contractions even though dilation still seemed slow. I ended up not needing the second dose of Cytotec or the Pitosin. At 6:00am, I was at a 3 and got the epidural. I was still expecting a full day of labor ahead of me at that point but was able to finally fall asleep and get some rest. Around 8:00am, the nurse came in and woke me up to check me, and to my surprise, she told me that I was ready to start pushing! It was just a few short minutes afterwards that we were holding our sweet baby boy in our arms! Korben was a little unsure about his baby brother while we were at the hospital but as soon we got home, he was instantly attached and has been such a good big brother to Logan! Josh, Korben, and I are all just so so thrilled to finally have our Logan here!

How can you not love this? :)
Korben was so sweet showing Logan his room and all of his stuff when we got home from the hospital!
Kristen came over to take some newborn pics; unfortunately, Logan was not having it so we only got a couple of shots. But the few shots that she did get are super cute!
Don't you just want to eat him up?? :)
Our family of four!
