She's Here!!

Loralye Raylee Green
January 16, 2009 at 2:20pm
8lbs 9oz, 20in

Aaron and I snuck away to the office to pay some bills online while my family is babysitting Loralye, so I thought I would write a blog for you all! Be prepared for lots of pictures! I went in on Thursday the 15th to be induced. They started me on cervadil (sp?) to thin me out at 5:30pm and by 7:30am on Friday I was given an epidural. By about noon I was fully dilated, but my doctor was at another hospital delivering another baby and wanted me to wait, so we did. For two hours! When she finally showed up, all I had to do was push six times and we had our baby!




Due to being super shaky and throwing up lots after delivery, I didn't get to hold Loralye for a few hours, but Aaron took good care of her!


Loralye got to meet lots of her family at the hospital...
Aunt Krista (and that's Aunt like they say it in England, not Aunt like we say it here in the US!)


Auntie Amber


Grandma Wendy

Boss (since Loralye will be going to work with me, Grandpa Allen needed a nickname that both the baby and I could call him!)


Grams
Papalapa

and Aunt Nikki and Uncle Shane.

24 hours after she was born we got to go home!


She's also met Uncle Phil and Uncle Jesse since being home. Aunt Cynthia and Uncle Jason met her yesterday, but I didn't take pictures yet!


And here are some pictures from the last two weeks... Enjoy!
