10:15 pm - 9.5cm and almost there! Hopefully big news soon!

11:30 pm - starting to push! [on a personal note-Mimi had to move 4 floors away to the lobby :( as some family is having a reunion here it seems and overflowing the large waiting room on 5]

11:57 pm - Announcing the arrival of a beautiful 8 lb 19.5 inch baby boy, Everett Joseph. Mama and baby are doing well!
