Hello hello from the land of newborns! I'll just do a quick blog cause some of the pictures of the baby are on my moms camera cause like dorks we didn't make sure our camera was completely charged!! Gee duh, we know!
Monday morning I slept in really really late and woke up and had some stuff going on down there that wasn't quite right so I called the doctor and they told me I was in labor. Unfortunately Ryan works in South Provo and my parents and sister who is here from Colorado were all down in Provo. And I was here with the two kids freaking out cause this was obviously not like the other two and I was nervous. Anyway I called Ryan right away he came home and we got in the car with the kids and got down to the hospital just in time to meet up with my parents. I was admitted around 12:45 in my room by 1:15. I had my epidural that took 4 times to be placed around 2:15. I was around 5cm at 3:30 which is when they gave me the pitocin. By 5:50 my epidural wore off a little and I was feeling her "coming". They prepped me and waited for the doctor to come and I was ready to push by 6:15. I pushed for 15 minutes and she was out!!!! WOO HOO!! She was born at 6:30pm and weighed 7lbs 3oz and is 18inches long. She has by far the most hair of any of our kids so far, it's jet black and sticks up, but no we don't have a gorilla baby! She's darling but of course we are very partial, she's just absolutely precious! We feel so blessed to have a perfectly healthy, beautiful baby! Love to all!

Congratulations! She is so cute! It sounds like labor was pretty good, 15 mintues of pushing is fabulous! Sorry the epidural was so hard to take though. Hopefully I'm not to far behind you! I'm so happy for you and your family. Get some rest and snuggle the baby for me!
Welcome to the world, beautiful Ellie! Thanks for the info. Gosh, 4 tries to place the epidural sounds horrible, but then 15 minutes of pushing to deliver sounds nice. Hope all is well.
