Well she is finally here

and I can sit here at the computer for a little bit. My water broke at 7:00am Tuesday, January 23rd, we took our time but collected everything together and headed to our doctors usually a 45 minute drive. We took our time going up and stopped for gas and breakfast first. We made it to my doctors about 10:00am. After 18 hours of labor she arrived at 12:46am weighing 6lbs8ozs and a healthy 21 inches long. The water birth was amazing...

I can't believe my mom had that shirt on while I was laboring:

Labor begins

Tuesday, January 23, 2007 7:18AM

Real contractions began last night just about the time of our Doctors appt. By the time Hero's came on (9:00pm they were 6 minutes apart)! I went to bed around 11:00 and slept pretty well until about 4:45am when I had a pretty good one wake me up! Still 6 minutes apart at 6:30 I decided to take a shower when they started coming much closer together, just as I got out of the shower my water broke at 7:00. We are getting ready to leave for Dr. Hayes office in Hendersonville. We are about to meet our little girl.

Still 2cm's

We went for our weekly checkup yesterday, and unfortunatley there has been no change since last week! The suspence is killing me. When is it going to really start? We will be 39 weeks in 2 days, I should just be thankful we have made it to here, I will keep reminding myself of that!

Any day now!

Well here we are at almost 39 weeks and I can barely contain myself, it's not that I am anxious to not be pregnant, I am just so ready to hold her and kiss her and show her how much she is wanted, appreciated, and loved!
I have to say I am so extremely blessed right now, I have finally found the perfect job for myself, I really enjoy going to work everyday and I could'nt love the people I work with more. I can honestly say I am going to miss them while on my maternity leave so much so I actually asked to work the week after my maternity leave started. However at Tim's request, Yesterday will probably be my last day as I have now been dilated to 2cm since monday and it can't be too much longer now, can it?
So for now I guess we just keep waiting........................
