okay, here we go...

We began Saturday morning at 4:15am at the hospital. Long story....to tired to tell.

Sunday morning still there and eating breakfast (a popsicle, ugh).


Finally, finally at 7:45pm Sunday night she finally came.


After 3 loooooong hours ofa pushing, intense pain, one small pelvis, a baby turned face up, presenting forehead first, and one good suck from the vacum. The doctor stating, "She never would have came out on her own". ARE YOU KIDDING? Couldn't we have figured this out hours earlier????



8lbs. 8oz


21 inches long

Elora

The ONLY pic of me that I allowed. I was NOT in the best frame of mind. I will show Elora this pic when she is older to show what kind of torture she put me through :-)

Now that we are home and recovering we are all HAPPY and enjoying one another.

Brittany is taking pics on Saturday and I will post those when I get them.

This may sound odd, but after looking at the pictures again, I think she looks like Grandma Schwendiman. At least in pictures #1 & #3. Maybe?

Way to go!! She is a cutie.

HAHA. You don't look THAT bad. Not having to go through labor is one good thing about being male - but we probably miss out on some other things.
Congratulations! She looks healthy and happy.

Oh My Gosh!!!! Congratulations!!! She is beautiful!! :) Can't believe she's here already!! (Of course I'm sure you don't feel that way! I felt like I was pregnant for a couple years! Haha)

Congratulations! She is beautiful. It is so fun to have so many little baby girls in the family. We need to get them all together for a pic. Get some rest and enjoy every minute of that precious doll!
