Cohen has finally arrived!!!!






Cohen Dean Stewart
born February 14, 2009
8lbs 8oz
20 1/2 inches

On Saturday February 14th (being 4 days overdue) I starting having contractions every couple of minutes. Of course this was at 2:00 am I woke Erik up and we headed to the hospital. After determining I was in fact in early labor I was admitted and we settled in for the long haul. My progression was good at first, received the epidural after a few hours of agony and was well on my way. However, things started to slow they kicked up the pitocin and still after hours I had very little progression and the epidural was wearing off. I was told my chances of a c-section were increasing. I was disappointed but still hopeful. Finally after 20 hours of labor the doctor determined the baby was just not going to fit through my pelvis. So I was prepped for surgery and in less than 45 min at 10:39 pm on February 14, little Cohen was born healthy weighing 8 pounds 8 ounces!We are so happy and so blessed to have Cohen here safe and healthy.

Cohen's First Bath

Bringing Home Cohen





We were discharged after three days we were excited to bring Cohen home. So far he is a really good baby loves his swing and soothie pacifier. He hates baths and diaper changes and has hit dad and the wall amongst other things with shooting flows of urine!

Sent With Love




I saw this outfit about a week before Cohen was born and couldn't decide if I should buy it, but couldn't resist because I just had a feeling we might have a Valentines Day baby!
