Her 1st bath

She did so good! She loved the warm water!

She's here!




She has arrived! Here are a few photos and a video - she is two weeks old now and I am sorry I am just now updating this - life as we knew it has totally changed as all of you know, so it's been hectic!




She has arrived!

She decided to come on her own - no induction necessary :-)
My water broke at 9:30pm, Monday, Oct. 6th and we headed to the hospital...slowly but surely. They checked me and said "Yep, you're a keeper!" and we headed to our room where I would labor for the next 13 hours or so. I got my epidural (after begging!) at 7:30am and she made her way into this world at 12:45pm sharp. 7lb 2oz and 19 1/4 inches long - and absolutely perfect! Here's a few shots from those first moments.

Due date is here...but where is Macy Kate

She's snug in my tummy still! :-)
Apparently she will be stubborn, like her Mommy, and may just be forced out of her old home soon. We will go in Tuesday night at 7pm to start induction if she doesn't change her mind before then and come on.
The thought of going in and everything being controlled tomorrow night is a nice thought but then again having some fun going into labor story would be fun too - I'm torn! Come tomorrow night at 7 I will have no choice :-)
Doug and I are both so excited and just can not believe it will be within days, no matter what. FINALLY! Nana Pat is here and everyone one and everything is in place....we just want to meet her!
I had a few contractions at church yesterday and through the day but nothing consistent, so who knows.
Any last minute advice we need????
