The day was finally here, and I'm not going to lie I was soooo ready to not be pregnant anymore! This pregnancy was the most difficult thing I've ever gone through. I knew what a blessing would come of it, but there where days I didn't know how I was going to do it, but I did and now I have the sweetest baby girl in my arms and the difficulties of my pregnancy are already a blur.
Our last picture before we headed to the hospital. We were up super early to check in at 7am to get my induction started!
A little labor selfie!
They started my induction a little after 9am, and I immediately started to contract about every 3 minutes. About 1pm I got my epidural and had a little bit of a blood pressure scare, but they were able to get me stable again. At 6:30pm they broke my water and at 9:30 after only about 10 minutes of pushing sweet June was in my arms!
THIS MOMENT! I feel like there are a 1000 emotions captured in this picture! I just love this picture so much, and I tear up every time I look at it! The relief in my face of knowing that it's all over and yet it's all beginning. The way my hand is gently holding her head. How her skin is still a little blue, but starting to turn pink as she cries. While I know I am all done having babies knowing that I will never experience this moment again pains my heart.
She was just the most perfect little baby so alert and so calm I immediately fell in love with her
She is only an hour old here and just look at that little face!
Proud Daddy!
This was in the middle of the night (Daddy was snoozing on the couch next to me) and I couldn't stop starring at her and taking her picture
I love how giant her hands look in this pic!
The next morning Ford finally got to meet his baby sister! He was so excited and told me he just wanted to hold her forever!
And just like that we're a family of 4! My whole world in one picture! I've dreamed of being a mom my whole life, and I don't think I could have dreamed it this good!
This Man! Dr Scarborough was with me through it all and treated me like I was is daughter. He came in to deliver me even though he wasn't on call. I can remember right before I was getting ready to push and throwing up, he said you can do this and hopefully this will be the last time you'll have to throw up from this!!! He was also quite impressed with how fast I pushed her out! I will be forever grateful for his kindness and support!
Aunt Anna was such a huge help through all of this. She and Adam took care of Ford for us, and brought him up to meet baby June!
So sweet!
All dressed in her going home outfit and ready to go home!
These two guys hearts will never be the same again!
Oh my goodness she was such a CUTE newborn!!! And fat!! Love her so!
