BEAUTIFUL!!!!!!

We named her after my grandmother (NANA) whose name is Annalee, so we flipped it around )minus one "e" and her middle name is Elanna (E-lawn-a).

We just love her so much!!!! What a blessing that has come into our lives. I never knew I could feel this kind of love... It is indescribable!!!! Things that were once important, aren't important anymore.... and every song I hear all of a sudden has new meaning.... I want so much for her, to be happy, healthy, and safe.... I want the world to be a better place because now our baby is living in it! She is the sweetest thing, and now I can't imagine life without her!!!

The Hospital

At the Hospital!!!!!!!! I had a date with the doctor on October 13, 2011 at 7 am to get induced, this is me the day I had Sawyer! I swear I wasn't that big the night before.... It was 8:30am by the time we were all checked in and situated, and thats when my doctor came in and broke my water and was put on Oxitocin. I got a yummy red popsicle for the occasion, thats why my tongue is so bright!

By 11am my contractions started..... At first I was thinking this isnt so bad! Maybe I can do this without an epidural..... The nurse even came in around 12 and said the anethsiologist was going into a c section and wouldnt be able to get to me for at least another hour so if i wanted it before then I would have to take it now... I said "I can wait" no later than 5 minutes I wished I had not said that!
PAIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The contractions started coming so close together, like 2 minutes apart and lasted an hour each... ok maybe a minute.... so the nurse gave me some drugs I could take in the mean time, and wow did they make me loopy!!!! I was slurring words and it felt good! I could still feel the contractions, I just didnt seem to mind them! Then finally at 2 I got the epidural.
Much more content!!! :)

Then at 5:38pm I was ready to push!!!! I don't want to get to graphic here, so if you want details you can ask me for them! You would not believe what labor feels like unless you've been there.... Not entirely what I was expecting... I thought pushing would be so painful, but that wasnt even the worse part!! There was just so much pressure and I was so numb from that and the epidural, but I could feel everything, and it was strange!

And at 6:19 pm our beautiful baby girl was born!!!

Aw, sweet relief!!!! I'm so glad my mom caught this special moment between me and Jordan. It was quite the experience!

After she was born they gave her right to me (without a bath, but at least wiped her off with a towel) and we had what they called the "Miricle Hour" where we cuddle skin on skin with no interruptions. It was very special!
