Daddy and his Princess…Love at first sight!

My personal Nurse!!  the best nurse you will ever find!!  Thanks Tammy for always being right by our side! You’re the best!

The boys adore her from the moment they seen her…  They were so sad when they had to leave her with me at the hospital, Kash said,”Mom make sure you bring her home when she wakes up!”  We had to reassure them that we wouldn’t leave her at the hospital.

 I sent Joe to the store to get me a pillow for the second night stay at the hospital…..He got a pillow, but look at what else he picked up! I think he's already becoming a softie for his little princess.

  We finally have her home!  We made the boys take a bath before they could hold her.

Thursday At 3:00 am my water broke, as Joseph awoke he looked at me in disbelief… just the night before I told him that it is finally hitting me…we are going to have a baby  in about 2 1/2 weeks if they start me 1 week early.  I had better get the nursery and a few things ready for this little one.  So when my water broke less than five hours later it was a big surprise to both of us.  He called his Mom and she came up to be with the kids, with no bags packed we hurriedly threw a few things together and off to Provo we went.  I called Tammy at 4 am on our way and she met us there.  Thank heavens for my own personal Nurse! I was only dilated to a 2 when we got there and it didn’t look like things were going to happen very fast, we could not start the pit yet because baby girl didn’t look very good while monitoring her during the contractions.  After moving around a little and getting her to look better we finally started the pit at around 10 am.  The little turkey just had to scare us and make us nervous!  Delivery was probably the easiest out of the four because she was only 6lb 11 oz.  delivering at exactly 3:00 pm, I was still in disbelief that we actually have a little girl! We were also a little nervous, her being 3 weeks and 3 days early that she would have to spend a day or two in the ICU, but she passed all the tests and looked great!  The only trouble we had was keeping her blood sugar count high enough, and had to do a few extra billiruben tests, but  by Saturday afternoon we brought her home..  Oh the Sweetness of a new Baby Girl!
