And Baby Makes Three!

She's here!! Anna Claire Proctor has arrived! After sitting around all day with friends on my due date wondering if I would ever go into labor I finally did...that night! I started having contractions at 11 pm and we got to the hospital around midnight. I was already 8cm woo hoo! (boy does 8cm hurt!) Once I got the epidural I was a happy girl and Anna arrived at 7:12 am on Tuesday February 12, 2008. The grandparents all rushed in from Baton Rouge and got there just in time to greet her. She weighed 8 pounds 9 ounces and was 19 inches long.


This is before the epidural! I'm pretty sure I'm on the phone with mom telling her to hurry up and get here!


And this is the epidural happy face!

Girls only! Jessica and her daughter Kinley; Rachel and her daughter Taylor; Juli and her daughter Ella.



Here is Nikki with Anna. Luke and Matthew were there too, but I guess they were camera shy!
A lot of people came to visit that evening. It is a good thing we have pictures of them all because by that time I had made friends with the pain medicine pump and I don't really remember much of the visits! :)
