Announcing Gavin Frederick Mullins






I went to the hospital on Sunday, May 4th at 1:30PM to be induced. After 24 hours of labor, an epideral and oxygen mask, an episiotomy, a 4th degree tear and a 1/2 hour of pushing, Gavin was born at 1:41 on Monday, May 5th. I was so grateful for the apple juice they gave me right after delivery...I was so hungry. Gavin and I are both doing really well. Here are just a few pictures...I will post more later.

Oh my goodness I think he's one of the CUTEST newborns I've ever seen! (my kids excepted, of course :) And I know how the 4th degree tear thing goes, had it twice. Not fun. I hope you're doing well!

Could he be ANY cuter!!! OH my goodness!!!!! :) I love the name Gavin!

You poor thing!! It sounds like that was a pretty rough labor! You must have pushed hard to get him out in thirty minutes though!! Way to go! :)

I was so excited to see pics posted!! He is adorable and congrats to you both!

Wow, I'm not gonna lie, your description is pretty good birth control. Good thing it's all worth it! Hope everything's going smoothly and you're recovering well.

You win, Ashlee! I'll take my labor any day. Gavin really is a cute baby-no lie. I love his name. I've always like it, but it's a little redundant with our last name.

He's really adorable Ashlee! I love the name. It sounds like it was a little rough going there for a bit, I hope that you are feeling well! Congratulations!
