marley may is here!!
ok so here is the story- tuesday i went to my appointment and i was still one cm. my doc stripped my membranes and sent me on my way home exspecting to see me wednesday night for my induction. i went to my work to pick up some stuff. i was cramping a bit but thought it was just the exam that was causing it. i went home, still continuing to cramp. as i was going to the bathroom my water broke but didn't really think it was becuase i was just a little bit of fluid so i ignored it. that was about 11:00. chase got home at 3:30 and i was in a lot of pain. i called my sister who told me to head up to the hospital just in case. we got there at about 5. they checked me and i was 2cm!! i was really happy! my blood pressure was high so they did some labs and by the time the results came back i was 4cm. they admited me, stared my epidural at 7 (which by the way saved my life because i was dying of pain at 4cm). by 11 i was 10cm. she was still wasn't low enough for me to start pushing so they let my contractions push her down for an hour and a half. by 12:30 i stared pushing, and by 1:07 she was out! it was amazing! she weighed 6lbs and 14 oz and was 20 inches. we went home on thursday. she has caught on to feeding really well! so far the nights have been really good ( knock on wood). thanks to everyone that came and visited! we love you all so much and appricate all the support!

Beautiful pics Lou! I love the one of Chase looking at her tiny naked body right after she was born! Beautiful!
I love little Marley May!
Lou good work on posting all those photos, we loved it! Our favorite is when she is in her go home outfit, she is so cute!!!!! In some pics jon and I thought she looked like a samoan baby, then a chinese baby, then she looked like you, then chase, but mostly like chase! We cant wait to love her!
I have to agree with your sister. I thought she was a Samoan baby in the first pictures but now she has devloped the bird lip like Chase. I can't wait to see you guys!! 1 more day.
