Here she is 10 pounds 9 oz. The epidural did not work- I'm still not sure why they didn't believe me when I kept telling them I could feel every contraction. I remember the look on the nurses face when they told me it was time to push and she lifted up the bag with the epidural medicine in it and it was completely empty! I'm not sure what part of my body all that medicine ended up in, but it wasn't anywhere that helped with the pain. I bet my face looked pretty priceless as it dawned on me that I was about to push this baby out with zero help from drugs!! And I really didn't think I could- I remember saying, "I can't do this" multiple times. It got pretty scary there for a minute- but it worked out and I got to meet the most beautiful little chubs.
So has completely made us all fall in love with her. Here she is today. 4 and a half months old:
5 kids in definitely different than 4! But I have the most amazing helpers who never complain when they are asked to help with Lucy. And Lucy is a very laid back baby which really helps!
I would like to say that I will keep up the blog better- but that would be a lie ;) Someday when life calms down maybe, but not today :)
