Annabelle was born Saturday February 16th at 121pm in the Alta View Hospital in Sandy, Utah. She weighed 7 lbs. 2 oz. and was 20 inches long. She has the same light coloring as Elisabeth, light brown hair and blueish eyes.
We went to the hospital yesterday morning for my scheduled induction. My doctor started me on pitocin around 10am but I didn't actually start feeling contractions until about 11am. I got an epidural around noon and felt the need to push an hour later but my doctor wasn't ready! The nurses said, "Oh! I can see her head, but don't push because the doctor is next door delivering someone else!" Those were an uncomfortable 20 minutes of waiting, but we did fine and as soon as the doctor arrived I pushed and out she came! Everything went very well, I feel great and Annabelle is healthy and strong and so we were able to come home fast. The family loves her, Elisabeth can't get enough of her and we're all just so pleased to have her join our family.
