Monday afternoon, I went to my regular doctor visit before my doctor left for a weeks vacation. At the appointment, the doctor informed me I was 3 cm dilated, had high blood pressure, and since I was 40 weeks he would just prefer to schedule me to have the baby that night.
We checked in about 8, and headed to our room. Not quite as nice as a hotel, but not bad.
Rudy decided to try out my bed
This is where I spent the next 12 hours. After being hooked up to the monitors, we found out I was rapidly contracting, so they couldn't start the pitocin. About 11 they decided to break my water and 9 hours later he was born - on his scheduled due date.

Skyping with Abuelita (grandma) Garcia since she couldn't be there.
