Carly had her first photo shoot!

My awesome friend Claire (Claire Hill Photography) was nice enough to take some awesome photos of my baby girl. She is such a doll. Check out these photos.

Carly made her grand entrance a little early!!!

Seems like just yesterday I had scheduled to get a prenatal massage and a haircut. Both on the same day.

May 21st, 2009.

6:30 am - Wake up and take Taylor to school.

8:00 am - Prenatal massage.

11:15 am - Posted on Facebook that I would be scheduled to be induced within two weeks.

11:30 am - Went to get my haircut.

12:15 am - Water broke leaving the haircut place.

1:15 pm - Arrived at the hospital thanks to my good friend Laura.

1:45 pm - Checked into my room and in labor. 2 cm.

5:15 pm - 4 cm and loving the epidural.

6:15 pm - Epidural wore off and got some more serious meds. Numb all over... shakes... nausea..

8:15 pm - 5 cm and feeling really drugged up and can't lift my leg worth anything.

8:30 pm - Taking bets if Carly will be born before midnight so it will be on her NaNa and PawPaw's anniversary.

9:00 pm - 9 cm and almost time to push.

9:40 pm - Nurse wants to do a few trial pushes to see how it goes. After three pushes with contractions she says to not push any more becuase her head was right there. They called the doctor and we waited. There were two other ladies who would be delivering before me.

10:03 pm - Dr. Lee arrived.

10:08 pm - Carly was born after two pushes. This was way to easy. LOL! She was 7 lbs and 19 1/2".

Carly ended up having to stay a third night in the hospital due to jaundice. The hospital staff was nice enough to let me have a courtesy room for free for Saturday evening. We made it home by lunchtime Sunday May 24th.
