Abused Blog!!!
















Well, as most of you know already we received an unexpected delivery from the stork last Thursday!!! I was scheduled to be induced this Monday but our tiny angel did not like doctors making her schedule for her! Tyler and I wisked off to the hospital Thursday morning at 2:00 am to find out I was in fact in labor!! We were really excited because Dr. McDreamy was hoping she would come on her own before the induction date and so she did! Tyler and I were a little confused by the chain of events...it was not like the movies or like you hear about from people for us! I woke him up, told him I thought baby was coming so he got up then I said I am going to take a shower and brush my teeth before we leave the house. The hot shower eased my cramps so I took my time brushing my hair, packing the rest of my last minute items for my bag and trying to find something cozy to wear to the hospital! Then we get in the car and Tyler was expecting me to scream and yell the whole way there but we had a nice chat. Once we got to the hospital and I sat in the wheel chair, the pain started getting a little more intense but still not like the movies people! The nurse checked me out and said my water had broken and I was in active labor so we wouldn't be leaving the hospital without a baby! So within 10-11 hours we had a baby...I will tell you...I had every intention of trying to have natural child birth before the doc started thinking baby could be 8-9 pounds. It was like the best Christmas when Dr. Red came in with the epidural! So a couple of pushes and we had our beautiful daughter laying right there with us!!! And what a beauty she is! A head full of brown hair like daddy, big blue eyes, Angelina Jolie lips, chubby cheeks and a long, skinny body! I have never seen anything more precious and perfect! I can just sit here and stare at her for hours! She is a week old now and has been such a wonderful baby! She loves to eat, sleep and poop and her doc says she is very healthy! We are so happy and are loving our new titles as Mommy and Daddy!!! I will have lots more stories to come in the near future but wanted to get an update on here and a few pictures posted!
