Ella's arrival

So Ella has arrived! We are still in the hospital and all doing fine and Ella is more precious everyday. It all started Thursday afternoon around 1pm when the contractions started and slowly became stronger and closer together. After many hours of me crying in pain and bane getting really nervous we headed to the hospital at 11pm at night. I held off until they were 3 mins apart because I was afraid of being that pregnant girl who went to the hospital way to early only to be sent home and told to come back later, I was determined that when I did get there it would be to have a baby not a practice run lol!! Anyway I was 5 cemeters when I got there and after an epidural and 8 more hours then she finally came. As my sister has said there was pain and words and phone calls but I will spare the details for you all. Here are some pics and of coarse I feel she is the most gorgeous baby girl ever... Born 9/17/09 at 7:02 am. 6 lbs 13 ounces, 19 inches long!!
