Little Miss Maylee

Friday, January 7th came and went.... No baby.
Saturday, January 8th came and went.... No baby.
Same story Sunday and Monday.
Monday the 10th I had a Dr. appointment and at that time, He gave us the option of inducing. We were anxious for her to arrive and I felt like my body was ready. So Tuesday, January 11th at 4:00 am, we called the hospital like were were supposed to. They said, Sorry! We are not ready for you, we will call you back. So FINALLY at 10:15 they called back and said come on up! We were so nervous but excited. By the time we got to the hospital, got checked in, and they started my IV it was 11:45 am. So, that was it... labor was started and we didn't know what to expect really. Yeah we took a birthing class, but those mothers shown in the videos are SO dramatic and intense! This was totally different. The nurse told us since I was a first time mom, and I was being induced, we would be AT LEAST 12 hours, but could be a lot more. Well, I guess I did pretty good to have her at 8:45 pm! 9 hours....Take that nurse! Anyway, the point of this is to introduce our sweet little girl!!

We kinda like her! Being a mom is hard but so amazing! I LOVE it so much and couldn't do it without a great husband like Tobin!
