She is here!! Jada Louise was born April 13, 2006 at 5:17 pm. She weighed 7 pounds 10 ounces and is 18 1/2 inches long. She looks a lot like Carter when he was born. She has just a little bit of hair- it is VERY dark! And so far her eyes are dark blue.
The Birth Story:
We started the morning off at 6:00 am. We checked in and they started the pitocin drip about 7:30. Dr. Lofter's came and broke the water at about 8:30. I had small contractions all morning long. I got an epidural at about 1:30 and by 4:00 it was no longer working. I was fully dialated at 5:00 pm and after about 4 or 5 contractions I was able to push Jada out with no pain medicane. I DID NOT want to experience "NATURAL CHILDBIRTH" but unfortunatly I did!! She did very well as did I. We were able to leave the hospital after 24 hours due to a crowded hospital and I was just ready to come home and be with my family!! All is well so far and Amy should be able to go home tomorrow with our little Nate. She is still having a lot of pain- but she is a VERY strong girl (as we all remember)! I will try to post some more pic's after easter! Enjoy these for now. (That is Nate on the right with Jada on the left in the first pic).
