Our Newest Addition!

It's been a pretty eventful few months for us! From Birth to Now, here's what happened!

(Long Post and Lots of Pics!)
So Madi decided not to come on her own and I really needed her out! Got to the hospital at 6am for my induction.
Warmer all set up and ready to go!
When I had contractions, her heart rate would go down, so they kept stopping and starting the Pitocin...Nothing to worry about though.

My room had a beautiful view of downtown.

The last picture of my baby bump!

I love him.

When I was pregnant with Alex, before we found out it was a boy, we actually thought it was a girl, so my mom bought these little booties...I saved them all this time just in case I ever had a girl! She wore them coming home. Very special to me.

Her going home outfit


I was in labor for 8 eight hours..The Dr. thought it was going to be a very hard and very long delivery, he told me that more than likely he was going to have to deliver her with forceps, so he got them prepared..I gave a few pushes but nothing was happening. I really didn't want a hard delivery, I had a really hard time with Alex, pushing for 2 hours and they had to deliver him with a vacuum..That's all I was thinking about, I was praying that she wouldn't have to be whisked away to the NICU like he was, I wanted my perfect delivery and once he told me that it was going to be a hard and long one for me, I got angry! I don't know what I did or how I did it (well, I'm giving credit to God for this one!) But I pushed again, and the Dr looked up at me and I'll never forget the look on his face, he said whatever you do, do that again, you just pushed her all the way down with that one push! (she was pretty high up there) So with just a couple more pushes there she was! It was a piece of cake! I didn't know having a baby could be so easy! lol. I only pushed for 20 minutes and got this beautiful creature..



Love those little feet

When she was born, I looked at her and told the Dr "Oh she's so little!" I really thought she was like a 6 pounder! The Dr looked at me like I was crazy and said "little??

This was the moment that he got wrapped around her finger


Dr. Macey, The best Dr. ever!

She was perfectly healthy!

Her big brother couldn't wait to finally meet her!

Jocelyn!
This was her dress for Travis and Ashley's wedding.

I was crazy for never wanting a girl! I just love her so much!


Her 2 month check-up



I love my kids!

God really has blessed this time for us! Just to think that I was never supposed to have kids without medication! And surprise! I get this perfect little Miracle! She's been such a joy for us and really can't believe we've gone this long without her!! My labor and delivery went pretty much exactly how I wanted it to thank God!! I had great support in the delivery room. Thanks to Cindy and Kristi and of course my husband! Cindy held the phone up the whole time so my mom who is 2,000 miles away could be part of the experience. And Kristi, took some amazing pictures!! I'm so thankful she was in there, she just recently had a baby and knew all the shots us moms would love to have! Like even down to taking a picture of the clock when I started pushing, and another one when she was born! Amazing! Thanks guys! Love you so much!
Well, this post took me forever to do, everything is all caught up now so now I'll just post here and there as things go on. :-) Love ya'll!
