Happy Birthday Madeline Ann!!!!

(newborn, 6 weeks and 12 weeks)



It's hard to believe that our baby is 6! I still can vividly remember the day that she was born.

Here is a quick recap:

-Wake up at 5 am with intense pain, call doctor, told to call back in an hour is still having contractions. Told to come in since they were regular and lasting.
-Take a shower and get ready. Contractions are getting pretty intense.
-On my HANDS AND KNEES in back labor on middle of living room floor as husband goes strolling by with newspaper to restroom. The thought of starting the day without a restroom stop is unthinkable.
-Driving to hospital in such intense pain that I am turned around in seat gripping and biting on it for relief when said husband asks me if I want to stop and get McDonald's for breakfast.
-Get to hospital, ask random Indian guy in elevator if he happened to be an anesthesiologist, no such luck.
-Finally get to room, get drugs. Go from 3 to complete in about an hour, push 3 times and the rest as the say is history.......She was the cutest little thing that I have ever seen, I could not get over all of her jet black hair and the way it stood up all over!!!

I love you baby girl,thank you for bringing joy and love into my life....
