Charlotte's Birth Day!

Charlotte joined the world after 31 hours of labor.
Let me give you a quick synopsis...
6 pm Saturday, January 30th - water broke
11 pm - checked into hospital
6 am Sunday, January 31st- started Pitocin
9 am - received my epidural (LOVE epidurals)
We had a wonderful day, really we did.
We watched movies and I napped and just
enjoyed our last day as a childless couple.
See...

9 pm - received 2nd epidural
Obviously it took a while for things to progress,
and we thought we would have to have a c-section at
two separate times. Fortunately, we had a very
patient OB who was willing to wait it out with us.
12:15 am February 1st - started pushing
1:12 am - Charlotte was born!

She weighed 8lbs. 10oz. and was 21 inches long.

We were thrilled!!!
