Well Mom and her Dr's FINALLY let me come out and see the world!!!!! Mommy said I am the most beautiful baby in the history of baby's. I know it was a REALLY hard time for Mom to get me out. Mom's Doctor was worried about her blood pressure and decided to induce labor. Mom and Dad checked into the hospital early on the 28th. They checked to see how dilated she was when she got to the hospital and when she got there she was already 2cm dilated and her cervix had thinned to about 25%. They started to induce her about 9am. By about 1 or 2 in the afternoon she was having contractions but every time they checked her out her cervix was still only 2 cm. Mommy was MISERABLE most of the day and night until the Doctor gave her an epidural around 11pm so that they could "crank up the medications" according to her Doctor. Finally around 2am the Doctor checked Mommy again and there was still no change. Mommy was so frustrated. Doctor announced that we could continue this all night and it was just not going to change, it was best to do a C-Section and let me come out. Mommy went to surgery a little bit after 3 am and at 3:43 in the morning on Wednesday, December 29, the rude Doctor pulled me out of my nice warm hiding space and handed me to my Daddy!!!! It was rather confusing, not to mention cold and bright so I started crying right away. The nurses poked and prodded me and told Mommy and Daddy that I was perfect!!!! I have a girlish figure and kept my weight down so when I was born I was only 5 pounds and 13 ounces but I don't intend to be that skinny for long!!! I am also a shorty right now and was 19 inches long when I was born but I intend to fix that as well!!!!! When Mommy was done getting stitched up and I FINALLY got to see her, Mommy was crying so hard. Mom said that I was the most special and beautiful baby in the whole wide world. When she held me I was so happy to see her I smiled and Daddy got a picture of it. (Doctor says it is just gas that makes me look like I smile but what do they know, they didn't wait 9 months to meet Mama!!!!)
While Mommy and I were in the hospital there was a really bad winter storm that came through so I didn't get to meet many of Mommy's friends or my family yet but I know I will get to meet everyone real soon. My Mommy's Mommy (my Grandma) came to see me just a few hours after I was born, she sat and rocked me for quite a while and couldn't take her eyes off me..... I think I have her wrapped around my little finger now so my evil plan has worked!!!!!
Mommy's friend Denise and her daughter Ky came to see me too. Mommy was really glad to have her come see me and give her a break from all the nurses who were bugging us all day and night when all we wanted to do was sleep and cuddle. It was fun to meet Mom's friends.
Mommy and I didn't spend long in the hospital cuz Mom said that I had a beautiful nursery at home that was waiting for me. We left the hospital at 1pm on the 30th and headed home. It was an amazing day!!! There was SO much snow!!!! Daddy drove really slow all the way home and yelled at the other drivers cuz they were driving so fast. (How thoughtful that Daddy didn't want them to block my view of the pretty white stuff.) When we finally got home there was at least a foot of snow in my yard, I wish I were bigger so I could go play in it!!!!
