Epidural, What Is It Good For?

Absolutely Nothing

Amy arrives at the hospital with the idea that this labor would be as simple and easy as her first two.


Four hours later they break water and begin pitocin.

After three stabs, the epidural is put in, but never works. Panic sets in.


Help me! (scream, scream) I'm dying! (scream, scream) I don't want to do this. (scream) I can't do this! I'm not doing this any more! (scream). I can't breath. I like to scream.


Oh, my sweet baby. I love you. You are beautiful. I'm so happy


Amy collapses into a drug induced post traumatic shock sleep.

Who's Your Daddy?

My daddy is Bo and I am 100% Widmann. Brett Widmann, 9lbs. 11oz., 21 and half inches.

I'm not a real alien, I just play one on TV

Having my baby

Amy is having her baby tomorrow, March 27. The baby now weighs 8lbs 14oz (we know through the miracle of ultra sound) and Amy's blood pressure is rising to a dangerous height, SO dear Dr. Courtney decided to induce 2 weeks before her due date. The only problem is that March 27 is Amy's alternate birthday. Her real birthday, December 27, was taken over by her daughter, Emily. Now this baby will take over her alternate birthday. Poor Amy...the things we sacrafice for our children.

Easter Egg Hunt at Grandma's

I wanted to show this bunnie cake that Gavyn made. He is very creative as you can see and he told me the Fruity Pebbles cereal that he sprinkled on last were "freckles". This was supposed to be the last picture, not the first. I hope some of you expert bloggers out there can help me figure out how to move around pictures and text so that they are in the right order.

I haven't figured out how to make the first picture and text I enter show up first on the post. Anyway here is a great picture of my Mom (age 78) and my Dad (age 84). I think they both look much younger.

The day before Easter 11 of my grandchildren and their parents gathered at our house for an egg hunt, bunnie cake decorating(thanks Aunt Melanie), and boat rides with Uncle Brandon. G.G. and Papa gave everyone bubbles and candy necklaces.
