she's pushing

I came back to the hospital at 5:30pm and spent time with Erika and Josh...and the rest of the fam...for almost an hour. Heather came in to check Erika's progress at 6:15pm. We all waited in the hallway and the nurse came out to tell us that we would need to head to the waiting room because Erika was going to start pushing. Yippee!!! Well, it's 8:20pm and we haven't heard anything from Josh, yet. We keep stopping by the nurse's station for updates. Erika is doing great. The baby is making progress and they've decided to turn down her epidural to help Erika feel more while she pushes. We can't wait for Josh to come in the waiting room and give us the news. Every time the door opens, we all hold our breath. We've been making predictions as to what they will name the baby and what time he'll be born and how much he'll weigh. My guess is that he'll be born at 8:27pm, on 8/27, weighing 8lbs, 2.7oz. We'll see....
