The Kuehn Family

Jourdan and I met in college through a mutual friend in 2001. We were engaged in 2005 and married on February 24, 2007. On September 7, 2009 we welcomed our daughter, Kayleigh. We had lived in the San Antonio/New Braunfels area since 2002 and now we are living in the Frisco area. We are very blessed.

Colton Walker is here!

Well, again I am behind on blogging. We are so blessed that Colton Walker is here! I was induced at 39 weeks on August 30th. The induction went really smoothly- it was just long. They started the pitocin around 8:30 am. I felt great and was able to just wait around for most of the  morning. The nurses come to check on you periodically and up the pitocin dosage. They kept asking if I needed the epidural yet, but I felt great. Around noon my pitocin was 'up all the way' and we just had to wait for me to finish dilating. Around 3:30 I had enough and was ready for the epidural. It made my blood pressure crash and then I was able to take a nap. Around 7pm I was finally dilated to a 10, but Colton was still high up. Around 10pm he was finally low enough to push. It only took about 2 pushes and sweet baby boy was here. He was 8lbs 1.5oz and 21.25 inches long. He was healthy and just amazing. Our doctor, nurses, and everyone were just great. Kayleigh is so excited to be a big sister. She is not jealous at all and loves to help.
Already smiling. :) (or tooting, I'm sure)

Proud parents

Kayleigh meeting Colton for the first time. Makes my heart happy!
