{I feel very blessed & lucky to have had such a great stay at the hospital. I actually love everything about it! I love being there with MP and our new baby, being taken care of by fabulous nurses & I just love that I feel that the world is on hold for those few days and we can just sit and enjoy our time together! However I missed Trae a ton when he wasn't with us! But a big thanks to my mom that stayed with him. Davis Hospital was so good to us, and not just because its the same company as the hospital MP works at in SLC but I have to rave about the facial I got & room service was awesome! I'm thankful Layla was also in our room with us, if any of you remember Trae was in the NICU so it was a new experience for us. Well, here are some pics of Trae meeting sister for the first time, (which was adorable, he loved to kiss her! So cute. ) and our fam with new baby Layla! We just love her. She is so sweet and such a good baby!}

LaYLa's StORy!

{Layla's birth story began early Sunday, January 30th at Davis Hospital. We arrived at 7am, when we got there I was already dilated to a 3 1/2 and 80% effaced so from then on everything progressed really fast! Before I got on pitocin or even had my water broke i got the epidural first thing!(I didn't want any pain! ha) Then at nine the doc broke my water and the pitocin started. Within minutes my blood pressure had dropped super low causing me to feel horrible~nauseated, light headed and so numb that I couldn't even wiggle my toes! creepiest feeling ever. Luckily with a little oxygen and some drugs put into my IV I felt some what better. By elevenish my mom, mil & lil sis (who by the way took these amazing pics) showed up. It was perfect timing because by then I was at a ten and ready to push, doc showed up and a couple pushes later little Layla arrived at 11:54 am.

It was so exciting to finally meet her and have her here in our lives! We feel so blessed to have had such great nurses and doctors along the way and to have a healthy happy little baby girl! We are so in love with this little angel. Here are the pics from her arrival.

{We rang in 2011 with a party at our house with a bunch of friends and had a blast eating, playing games & tons of babies playing everywhere! It was so fun! We are excited for this new year & are especially excited to welcome our new baby!~

Last week we had our Dr. appt and baby girl is measuring around 5 lbs. 8 ounces, and good news is I am dilated to a 2 & 50% effaced, as of now Doc scheduled my induction date for Jan. 30th!!(We are so excited! that's in less than 3 weeks!) I can't believe it, but I can't wait to meet her!}
