Thank you everyone!!!!  I LOVE being a mommy.  It is something that I never knew I wanted so much until now I am one and cant imagine ever being anything else. 

Yea I wouldnt let anyone take any pictures "pre" epidural.  I probably looked pretty rough then! :D  I barely got the epi.  I was completely dialated 5 mintues before they checked me and said I was completely dialated. 

It is so sweet to see my hubby with her!!  He has only changed 2 diapers since having her.  He said it scares him about wiping a little girl the wrong way!

Here is the link to all the pics of herhttp://www.facebook.com/album.php?aid=135784&l=e4a64&id=507860631.
 I can't downsize them for some reason.
Yea Hubby was there. 

It was kind of funny but wasnt at the time.  We have been told that first births usually take hours.  Well I told hubby that we needed to leave for the hospital and he was in the middle of watching a movie.  He finished watching the movie and then took a SHOWER before we left.  He didnt believe it was as close as it was. 

We then were in the car and I told him to safely speed becuase I was about to push.  He didnt believe me and when we got there I was 8 centimeters!

She arrived on Friday July 11th at 11:34 pm.

I went into labor on Friday evening at about 8:00.  She is SOOOO good.  She sleeps very well for being so little.  She weighed 7lbs 7ozs. 

Labor went VERY fast.  I went into labor and had only been in the car 20 mintues and felt like I needed to push.  It only took about an hour after that and I was completely dialated.  I pushed 3 times and she was out. 

I have been trying to upload pics and am not sure how to downsize them but my new avatar is a picture of her.  Can anyone tell me how to downsize them?

Our dogs tend to have this problem with the drinking from the always full water bowl!!! 

Bell the other night woke up hubby and ran to the hall bathroom door and started to scratch at it.  He didnt know why she was doing this so naturally opened it.  She ran right to the toilet lifted the lid and started drinking. 

HAHAHHA ;D He wasnt a happy camper at 2 in the morning.  He walks into the kitchen and there is her water bowl FULL of water.  Shouldn't she have known not to wake daddy up to let her drink from the toilet!!! :D ;)

Great News!!!  Hubby is on his way home today!!!  He managed to get alot done this morning and thinks that they will be able to leave by lunch time. 

So he said no matter what he will be home by dinner time!!  I am not really having a whole lot of contractions but I am just laying around hoping my BP will go down.  I need to clean the house a little but I am going to wait until this evening before I do that. 

The poor dogs!  They dont understand why I didnt walk them last night or this morning.  :'(I feel bad but I am letting them run the backyard pretty good in the yard.  Hopefully that will help and when Hubby gets home tonight he can walk them.

Hubby is ready to jump the moment I call. I have started to have contractions but nothing timeable or anything to make me think oh I am in labor. 

I am definatley interested in the scrapbooking!!

 He is actually due back on Friday. Hubby is hoping to get done early on Thursday so he can come on home.  I hope that everyone is ready for picture overload the moment she is born.

Has anyone ever had their membranes stripped?  I was wondering the success rate with it.  I didnt think that it was that good, that you actually had to have it done a couple of times. 

But alot of ppl have commented to me to get ready I will have her before Saturday.  Has anyone else had this done and if so did you go into labor in the next couple of days or nothing happened?  I was just curious more than anything.

Ok I ust got off the phone with the doctor the blood work came out fine.  So now we are just waiting for Friday to see if my blood pressure has gone down.  I wish I had a cuff.  I would be checking it to make sure it was going down.

It is going to drive me nuts waiting until Friday but I guess it is only a day away!!

Well he said that he is going to get home in time.  They are going to let him come home if I go into labor.  It just depends if he can do it in time.

I am going to be induced on Saturday morning.  My blood pressure all of a sudden went up and I had to get blood work done.  I am calling back at 4 to see the results but he feels that I dont need to go much longer because of that. 

He also stripped my membranes.  So I guess I will have a baby by saturday

HOLY MOLY that is expensive.  We got Bell and Baxter spayed and nuetered at the same time in March.  Both of them together plus shots and boarding because we had to go out of town was 500. 

I would definatley look around.  Actually here in georgia we have Buddy car tags that are for the SPCA. Every vet clinic gets an X amount of spays and nueter discounts from the money for the tags.  We waited 3 months and were able to get a discount.  It took I think about 120 of each dog.  We are already on the waiting list agian for Buble.
