Pictures from the Hospital

January 17, 2012

On January 17, 2012 We had a new addition added to our family.  Baby Chloe Kate was born.  It also happened to be PJ's Birthday.  So Happy Birthday PJ. 

Chloe Kate was born on January 17 at 4:48am.  She weighed 6lb. and 10 oz. and was 19.5".  She Has blue eyes and lots of brown hair.  I started having contraction on Jan. 16 after I picked up my mom from the airport.  I had a Dr. apt that afternoon and I was dilated to a 1.  I had been dilated to a 1 for the past 2 weeks.  After the apt. Regan and I went to Loews and walked around ( I am not sure what we where looking for but I know we where there for a reason).  We then stopped at Costco on our way home to get stocked up on things if I happened to go into labor while my mom was here.  My contraction at Loews had been about every 10 mim and just getting stronger and stronger as the day went on.  By that evening they became every 5 to 7 min so at 8:30pm we decided that I was going to go into the hospital but if you know me I wanted to get my kids to sleep before we left.  So it was 9:45 and the kids were not asleep so I decided that we should go anyway.  Jake got a little upset when we left but mom called about 5 min into out drive and he was just fine.  Thanks mom.  We got to the hospital and I was check and they said I was dilated to a 3 but I should walk around for a hour to get my contractions closer together.  This is exactly what happened when I had Haven.  So Regan and I took a hour long walk though the hospital.  The longer we walked the stronger the contractions got.  They hurt so bad.   They checked me again and I was admitted.   I got the epidural around 1am and was feeling great around 2am.  The nurse came in every now and them to check me and at 4:15 she called my Dr.  to come in. By the time my Doc got there she check and I was ready.  Three pushes at 4:45  and our Chloe Kate was born.  She was beautiful. God has blessed our family once again.

So these are 2 pictures that we had taken when Chloe Kate was 1 week old.  These pictures will have to do for now.  I can not find the ones from the hospital on the computer.  When I do I will juts post those.  I am so far behind on my post and so may things have been going on so I am going to try and get up to date so keep checking back more post to come.
We LOVE you miss Chloe Kate!!!!
