Knox Lister Fitzwater!!!
So, He is finally here after all the stress, pain, and other good things, we have our little Knox, and he was SOOOOOO worth it! I swear he is such an angel baby. Well, I figure I have gotta tell the birth story and the house is quite, baby is asleep, Holden is states away, Rye is at the gym, and I have some Portia time=)SUNDAY- We wake up and decide were heading to the hospital we wanted this kid out. I felt like it had to be almost time, but my Dr doesn't believe in checking so I really had no clue. So we leave and get about two miles from home and the car breaks down....ya, my new nice car...lovely =( So,Rye says it's out of gas, your gage was stuck, lets push it to a service station. I, Being the psycho that I am (hormones) start crying and refuse to get out, haha!!! (it's so embarrassing when I look back) I say no, I am just sitting here...So I finally realize I am crazy after rye tries to Reason with me, and we push it to a service station while all the lovely people watch us and don't ask to help. Long story short we end up walking all the way home through a ghetto trailer park....And honestly it was kinda fun! I swear my husband is the best man in the world!
So, we get that taken care of and figure it must be a sign not to go, but we go anyway, haha. So we go in and they say why are you here, and i say I feel like I could be in labor (lie) and so they check me and.......FREAK, I AM NOT EVEN DILATED, COMPLETELY SHUT!!! I wanted to die. But then all heck broke loose. I would have rather not been dilated and sent home for what we had to face next.......
His heart was very irregular, I cried when I herd it......The cord was tightly wrapped around his neck, he had a bowel movement and was stressed so they were worried he had swallowed some already, my platelets were barely hanging in there...I swear there was a never ending list of problems. So, I signed the emergency c-section papers just in case it came to that, and they called in all the specialists, broke my water, unnaturally dilated me completely in less then a hour and a half! and he just popped out!!! He literally just popped out, the Dr was in shock, they thought i was maybe a two-three when they went to check me, but there was a head! long story short, no c-section, and no problems at all!!! He was beautiful, his heart was fine, my fluids were clean, and besides some placenta problems it was perfect! .......just terrifying!!!
I just feel so blessed....I swear I am the luckiest girl ever, and I always wonder why?? I am so thankful for the power of the priesthood, and the man that my husband is. You wonder how you could ever love anybody more then you already do. I will never forget seeing his face the first time he looked up at Knox...... I love my husband and family so much.
Knox is such a great baby! i will update with a post all about him! When i get some more time! Thank you all so much!!!!

Oh he is so precious! I am so happy everything turned out okay for you guys! We don't like scary moments they are not fun!... He is cute! Congrats and have fun with the little guy!!!
You are awesome! He is so beautiful!
I am so glad it all went well. I can't wait to talk to ya. I am not going to call you for a few days. I hope you get some rest. LOVE YA!
He is so beautiful. I love him already and I can't wait to see him. I am so sad that he is going to be a whole month old before I get to hold him. He looks so much like dad whenever I look at his pictures I start laughing. What a sweety, and I still can't get over how different him and Holden are. All you kids are going to be so different looking. I think that would be really exciting.
So, mom logged in to Darbye's facebook account yesterday to see little Knox and called Sam laughing because i guess you had told her that "i swear, mom, i just pooped out dad!" or something like that. She didn't believe you until she say the pictures! Funny! He'll be one handsome little dude!! So cute! I'm so excited for you and glad all is finally well!! Love you guys!
Oh P! he is SOO precious. I am so sorry that the whole car/ hospital experience so wasnt the best! But, everything is good and he looks healthy as ever!! And so cute! You 2 are the best parents ever.. We love you guys so much! And are glad to have friends like you guys! Wish we lived closer to come visit :)! Congrads on the little man again, were so happy for your growing fam!! WAHOO!!!!!!
First and foremost: Congratulations on little Knox. I SWEAR, soon I will call you and come to your house without going to the wrong house and without being in a rush so I can just sit and oogle at little Knox! He's beautiful!
Secondly, YOU NUT!!! WHY, WHY, WHY DID YOU NOT CALL ME ON SUNDAY????? (Yes, intentionally in caps.) I cannot believe that rather than just calling me to come pick you guys up with a gas can, you would try to push a car 9 months pregnant to the gas station! You are a nut!
Overall, I'm just glad that everyone is okay. Congratulations!
how scary, but i'm so glad everything turned out well and everyone is good and healthy! You're a trooper! Congratulations you two! He's so stinkin cute!
I am so happy every thing turned out ok! I know the feeling about the doctors here not checking you. They don't until you are like 39 weeks because too many people go into labor after being checked! Crazy! I got really frustrated with them when I was pregnant with Austin. But anyway, Congratulations he is adorable!!!
I'm so glad that everything turned out ok! He is so cute! He really does look a lot like your dad! Love you Portia!
Oh Portia, how crazy that day must've been! I'm so happy for you and your sweet family. He looks like such a precious little guys! I'm so grateful things worked out for the best and that everyone is well.
Wow I'm so happy to hear everything turned out ok! He's adorable!
Look how PRECIOUS! I'm so glad to hear everything worked out ok! Congratulations!
Portia, he is so dang precious! I'm glad everything went well and you didn't have to have a c-section. I love you guys, hope all is well.
The car breaking down is a fun story.... but it would have sucked at the time as well as walking home in through the trailer park. What a trooper. I am so glad everything worked out so well. You are so stinking cute even right after delivery... no fair! ha just kidding.... i love you guys.
