Teya's Birfday!!
So that labor was mighty tough. With Ella, no drugs, no epidural; tons of pain. With Teya, epidural, but over 4 hours of pushing with all my might to get her out; all kind of exhausting. I was/am extremely happy that I did not have to have a C-section though, so thanks to my OB, the nurses, my step-mom (Teresa aka Gram) and Kevin for sticking it out with me during those labor intensive (literally!) hours. I'm not sure why little Miss Thang decided she would turn herself sunny side up at the last minute, but that really jacked things up. When she came out she had a bright red forehead (that I mistakenly thought was a birthmark) from being continually jammed into my pelvis bone for over 4 hours. Despite all of this, it was such a joy to finally meet her! She had TONS of hair and was perfect, of course :) The nurse that took her to clean her up in the nursery brought her back with the most awesome mohawk on a newborn I have ever seen! Granny and Popo brought the new big sister up to meet her that evening just a bit after the birth, but she was mostly afraid of the whole hospital ordeal. She wouldn't come close enough to the bed to give me a hug, but cried when she had to leave.
