Ezekiel Julian Murphy



Well, the day finally arrived! Friday morning at 8 30 a.m. , Ju , Allistair and I welcomed a very precious new baby boy into our little family! Ezekiel Julian Murphy wieghed 9 lbs 5 oz! The birth went amazingly, i woke up at 4 a.m. hoping to find myself in labor and was quite dissappointed that i wasnt having any contractions, then 12 minutes later, i felt my first one. They were very close together right off the bat, about 2 minutes and just kept getting closer. at 5 i woke julian up and texted my sister who was in stoney creek, letting her know i was in labor so she might want to head home (i was definately not expecting things to progress as fast as they did!) by 6 a.m. i was having back to back contractions so my mom came over to get allistair and we headed to the hospital. I was 9 cm already by this time! i couldnt beleive it when my midwife said taht, but was very relieved! i pushed for about 20 minutes and then our little Zeek was born. The midwives were incredible, i also had my best friend katrina in the room with us for the birth which was awesome! i was sad my sister didnt make it in time for the actual birth (she walked in 5 minutes after he was born! :( , but at least she got to see him right after. Everything is going great so far, Zeek loves to sleep, hes a very content little boy! and Allistair is doing amazing with him, he loves holding his baby brother ! here are a few pics of our bundle of joy :)
