Emerson Grace Finney has made her debut! Emmy joined us on Sunday, June 9th at 10:05 am. I was scheduled to be induced Sunday morning at 8:00; however, Emmy had different plans. At 2:00 in the morning, I woke to contractions 2 1/2 minutes apart. I immediately woke Scott, called the doctor and Scott's mom to come over to take care of Addy. By the time we left for the hospital at 2:30, contractions were 2 minutes apart. This labor was quite different from the 36 hours with Big Sister, Addy. After what seemed like days of questions and paperwork, I got the epidural at 5 am. Emmy continued to progress, I called the nurse in again at 9:50 saying, "I really feel like she's ready to come out." They checked me and sure enough Emmy's head was right there and I was 10 cm... 3 pushes later (just like her sister), we were a family of 4.
Emmy has been an absolute blessing to our family. We are complete. :) Addy is doing amazingly well with her. She's very proud to be a big sister... in fact she asked me today if she could bring her to school for show and tell. She informed me that she'd bring Emmy in her backpack, I just had to make sure I packed her paci and milk. hahaha
We are sooo happy to have another happy, healthy, beautiful baby.
