WELCOME BABY!!!!

I never thought the day was ever going to come! The doctor kept telling me that she could come at anytime but I guess she just wasn't ready to come. I went in for my doctors appointment right before my due date May 11th and he said that the due date might have been wrong and that it might actually be May 19th... I was so upset that day! All I have been wanting is for her to come! I was given the option to induce but after Kyle and I talked about it we decided to let her come when she felt like coming... Well May 11th came and went and she was still not here. I then woke up on the morning of May 12 and something just felt different. All of a sudden around 9:30ish I started to have contractions every 3 to 5 minutes apart. Kyle wanted me to wait it out so we wouldn't be sitting in the hospital all day waiting. Around 4:30ish Kyle decided that we should go take a walk around the block to make the contractions come. As we were walking we were timing the contractions and they were still 3 minutes apart so we called the doctors and they said to have me check into the hospital so we got all packed up and left for the hospital. Of course Kyle wanted to delay a little longer so it would give my contractions a little more time to progress. We got to the hospital around 5:30ish and checked in. They hooked me up checked me and I was currently at 3 cm. The nurse said that they would give me an hour and if nothing happened I was going to be sent home. I did not like that idea so about an hour later they checked me again and I was now at 5 cm. The nurse then reassured to Kyle and I that we were in fact having our baby! They came back an hour later and I was now 7 cm. At this point I was hooked up to the epidural and was sitting pretty. My family came by to visit before taking Eric my brother to his last dinner before entering the MTC in the morning. They ended up leaving after visiting for about 20 minutes and the nurse came in and said that if I wanted my family to stick around the baby would be here within 30 minutes. They had the on call doctor come in since my doctor was in Salt Lake and could not make it in time. After 3 pushes Abbigail Ann was here!
