Welcome Baby Olivia

Well hello everyone! It's been awhile since we posted on here, we have been so very busy since the last post!

We had an original induction date set for Dec 16, but an ultra-sound showed that Olivia was already getting even bigger, so they moved the date up to Dec 9. They tried induction for two days but it did not work, I just would not progress farther than 2 cm dilated. Then they went ahead with a c-section, which we knew was a good possibility. WEll, let's just say it was awful, quite an experience. The anesthesiologist argued with me when I told him I could still feel some pain, and said they had to get started because the spinal would wear off soon. By the time they got to the deeper cuts I could feel everything and was screaming, so they put me under and had to get the baby out fast. It was an awful experience, and I was out of it for the rest of the day/night.

She turned out perfect though! She was 9 lbs, 6.8 oz, 21 inches long! She is just gorgeous, has a head full of beautiful hair that has natural highlights! EVERYONE who sees her says this! When it's wet it's curly like mine, but when dry is straight. Eyes are blue for right now of course, we're waiting to see if they are like mine and Blaine's!

Since this is a bit late, she is already 4 weeks old, will be a month old on Sunday. Can't beleive how the time has flown, but I have slept through half of it, and wished I were sleeping through the other half. It has been crazy to say the least.

Now that things are getting somewhat back to normal, we will be posting more often.
