Sweet Baby Lucy

This post is about a month late, but I have a good excuse! I've been busy with a newborn. I can't seem to find the time needed to blog. I figured I'll just get the pictures posted and I can tell the story later.

The picture above was taken by Olivia a few days before Lucy was born. We had a crazy big snowstorm days before she was born. This is the view from my labor and delivery room the morning Lucy arrived.

I arrived at the hospital at 6:30am on Saturday, January 23rd. The nurse checked me and I was dilated to 9cm!! I was in full labor and very uncomfortable. I planned on getting an epidural and was told it was too late....after some begging, they paged anesthesia and I got it just in time..Thank God!! The relief was so fast and wonderful. This is me right after the epidural was placed, enjoying a little oxygen, Ahhhhhhh.
