Sleep? I'm not sure what that is...

Well she is here and amazing! BUT, I am very ready to get some sleep again. We're up about every three hours as of now for food and diaper changes. Being a mommy is a wonderful, amazing thing but I wont be such a chipper mommy very long on such little sleep :)

She's here...

November 10, 2009. 6:33 am. 6lbs 9oz. Olivia Joy Mewborn entered the world with a few pulls and tugs, filling her lungs with air and letting out a great big cry to let mommy and daddy know she was okay.

Mom went to the hospital on the 9th at 4:30pm because she thought her water broke (yes, she drove herself!). She had not started having contractions though so the doctor did a few tests and determined that yes it was her water that was leaking. The nurse started contractions around 6:30pm. At about 1:30am contractions were stopped due to the baby's heart rate dropping and started again around 2:30am. By 5:30am mom had not dilated any further so a c-section was ordered. An hour later, after mom and dad were prepped for delivery, Olivia was welcomed with open arms!

Mom and baby are doing very well and daddy is finally getting a little rest (though we know a lack there of is in the future).
