About 4am the doctor arrived since laura was 9.5 cm. The epidural was in full effect. No pain. 4:50 She finally started to push. the first hour was slow. The last 30 minutes showed real progress. At the end, Laura got to reach down and  pull Anthony out. Then I cut the cord. Grandma and Grandpa Rice and Dennis stayed all night waiting for some news. Anthony is healthy and just got his first bath. He is under the food warmer now.
