On Tuesday morning, Darren and I went to my doctor's appointment. They did an ultrasound since I was past due. On ultrasound, we found out that my amniotic fluid was very low, so....they sent us striaght to the hospital to be induced. We got to the hospital on Tuesday at noon and by 1:30 the Pitocin was started. My doctor got to the hospital and broke my water at 9:30 and by 10:30 I was wanting that epidural. At 12:50 I was fully dilated but the baby hadn't dropped far enough down so they just had me wait it out and let the contractions do their job. By 2:50 on Wednesday morning, I started pushing and at 3:14 am Wednesday, January 14th, the most beautiful little boy I've ever seen was born. We named him August Tyler Hartman. Welcome to the world little one!!! Maybe I shouldn't say little since he weighed in at a whopping 9 lb. 3 ounces and 22 inches long!
On our way home! We are excited and nervous at the same time :)
We put socks on his hands because his fingernails were soooo long!
All dressed up and ready to come home!
Is somebody talking about ME?????
First bath!
WOW! My doctor said that I had a Texas sized baby in Colorado :)
Wow! What a feeling! Holding August for the first time. I call this LOVE AT FIRST SIGHT!!!
Our first family picture together. Our family of two has FINALLY grown!
This is what I looked like before going into labor. 41 weeks is long enough!
Is that still a smile?? Oh yeah, that's because of the epidural :) This is real close to delivery. Almost there!
Very proud papa!

He's beautiful! Loved seeing these pictures of him. Hope you are all feeling good. Can't wait to meet him.
Kassi, he is perfect! :) So adorable and such a big boy! Guess he was comfortable where he was. ;) Can't wait to meet him.
So excited for you. I feel like it is my grandchild. Great to meet you at Wed. night meeting with Lisa and Scott. (I'm Lisa's mom Shirley) So glad they got to see all three of you. Going to miss the Colorado people so much.
Welcom August!
Darren and Kassi! Little August is a beautiful baby! Congratulations! Glad everything went smoothly! He doesn't even LOOK like a newborn. :-) That's how our Logan was. 9 lbs. 1 oz. :-)
Can't wait to see him!
Enjoy your first days together!
9 pounds!? is he eating meat yet? he looks like both of you. Weird huh? that he would look like his parents.
The name is great. Thanks for telling no one.
