Wow, what a day! My water broke at 1AM on August 13th, 2009. Chris was super excited and I was super nervous. I was afraid that my contractions would instanatly start and I would have my baby within the hour....WRONG! I ended up starting poticin at 6AM and little miss Ella arrived at 1:08PM on August 13th, 2009. Labor was really not that bad, and like they say, you forget it the instant you see your baby's beuatiful face. This was the best day of my life.
We were constantly surrounded with family and friends at the hospital, which made it very special for our new family. I sent Ella to the nursery both nights we were there and it was much easier than I had imagined. I think the fact that Chris and I had been up 24 hours made the difference. We were lucky to have such a wonderful group surrounding us and wouldn't have wanted her birthday any other way.
