(super flattering pic, i know!)Well.. she's here!!! 10 days early and completely perfect! Wedensday night I started having contractions so I woke Tommy up and we headed to the hospital about 10:30. By 11 I was hooked up to the machines in triage to monitor my contractions when at about 11:30 my water broke! (glad it was in the hospital bed and not in mine!!) I was at a 1 1/2 and 90% effaced. They admitted us and went ahead and gave me my epidural so I could sleep! At about noon I was still only at a 4 so they went ahead and started me on pitocin. By 2:00 I was at a 6, by 3 an 8, by 4 I was ready to push! And with about 5 pushes and 30 minutes the most beautiful baby came out! :) We had so many visitors in the hospital and now that we have been home..so many people love her so much already! We already couldn't imagine life without her. I'm sad she will already be a week old tommorrow..time is already going by way too fast. So far she has been an amazing baby and a pretty good sleeper! She only wakes up once MAYBE twice a night and usually I have to wake her up to feed her :) Hopefully things stay that way... but I won't hold my breath! My favorite thing to do is sit and watch her and her daddy. Tommy is so good with her and shes already got him so tightly wound around her finger! She loves him :)
