The Birth...

Sophia Joan was born on May 30th, 2012, but her birth started on May 28th (Memorial Day) at 4:30 in the morning.  Yes, that's right my water broke at 4:30am, and by 5:00am we were on our way to the hospital. After being checked (the doctor verified that my water did break) I was dilated to a 1, so I was admitted and moved to labor and delivery. I was induced and after 44 hours I had dilated to a 6 or 7. So it was off to the operating room for a c-section.  Sophie was born at 12:34am.

Bryan was in the operating room for the delivery then I had him go with Sophie to the new born nursery, and Heather came into the operating room while I was stitched up.

This is Sophie's first picture that Bryan took so he could show her to me before he could bring her over.

We both did great.


Sophie was 7lbs 8oz, 20 inches.



We love her so much.


Bryan, Sophie and I were so happy to go home.
