MACIE'S HERE

Sunday May 30th at 8:30am Macie Leigh Moss joined our family! I was so nervous for her arrival since Hunter came so fast and 3 weeks early. I was bound and determined to get get my epidural this time since I missed out on it last time (that's where the fast part came in). So I had a Dr. appointment earlier in the week and was already dilated to a 3. So for the rest of the week I kept waiting for my water to break. Well I waited in vain. I ended up going to the hospital Saturday night around 9pm with cramps, and crossing my fingers that I was dilated enough to stay so that I could get that precious epidural before it was too late :) Lucky for me I was dilated to a 6, and admitted. With my due date 4 weeks away my doctor was hoping that I would last 2 more weeks, but didn't seem too surprised to see me there that night ( i am always early). So happy to say I got my epidural, but sadly was taken off of it when my blood pressure dropped too low :( When it finally came up enough to re administer the drugs the tube had moved in my back and the epidural didn't work! At least it was my fourth and I barely had to push her out! She weighed 7ibs. 10oz. and was 19 1/2 inches long. A mother can't fully explain the anticipation of their baby's first cry, but when she cried for the first time it was a beautiful and comforting sound. So ten finger, ten toes, no hair, and can't figure out who she looks like?! Everything went perfectly and lots of family came to see our new bundle of joy!! Ellie and Carson were most excited to meet her and are so cute with her. Hunter although clueless to all the co motion is surprisingly very gentle around her. I feel so blessed to have 4 healthy, beautiful children! I seriously couldn't ask for a better life. Macie I love you so much and I look forward to all my years together with you and our family :)
