Alex finally joined us on November 22, 2010 at 5:22am. She came 6 days after her due date and also came on her own, thankfully I did not have to be induced. I started labor about an hour before we were to be at the hospital to get induced. Labor went quickly and perfectly. We arrived at the hospital around 8pm Sunday night. I lasted until midnight with no drugs and tried an injectable hourly drug first. This drug got me to a 4 at which I then received my epidural at 2:30am. My anesthesiologist said it was a little early to receive one but I knew it was not early for me. Around 4:15am my water broke and I started pushing at 5am. There were no issues pushing her out and Alex shocked everyone with her weight of 9lbs 1oz. We had a great experience and Casey was an awesome coach and helped take good care of me. We are very blessed with our new daughter.

She is gorgeous! Just three or four more and you will be done...I am just joking! Her weight is shocking because even by looking at the pictures, she doesn't look that big...but she is perfect! Congrats!
