Our newest Princess is here!! June 23, Monday morning at 8am I woke up with my water breaking. Knowing things may happen fast, I woke up Josh and called my parents. My dad was coming to watch
Kayleigh and my mom was going to the hospital with us. Within a few minutes I began to feel contractions. I called my friend Shannon (nurse
extraordinaire) to let her know we were coming into the hospital to have a baby. We left the house shortly after that. Josh drove
excellent to the hospital, considering it was Monday morning at rush hour. He kept his eye on the road, passing cars in the carpool lane and going well above the legal speed limit. My mother sat in back and talked to me between contractions. My grip on the
seat belt became tighter by the minute as I wondered why I chose to work in downtown Phoenix and not in east Mesa. We showed up at the hospital shortly after 9am. Shannon was waiting for us in the parking garage with a wheelchair. We were able to bypass registration and triage and go strait to the room Shannon had ready and waiting. The next few minutes were by far the toughest. Josh, my mom, and Shannon did an
excellent job of helping me breath and get through labor without any medication. I am just thankful everything went so fast! Taylor was born at 9:29am. She weighed 7#7.6 oz, 19 inches long, and
apgars of 9/9. She looks just like her big sister and is
absolutely perfect. We are so happy to have two beautiful daughters! It was a wonderful day!
