Halli was born Tuesday the 11th at 9:51 am. After, drum roll please, only about 13 hours of Labor (Heather was 36 hours of Labor). In fact I had started to Labor on my own at 8:00pm. At 9:00 they gave me Pit to get it going faster! All I can say is next time I am getting my Epidural sooner, and not try to be so tough:) As soon as I got it I progressed a lot faster- plus I think the Epidural hurt way less than the two nurses- yes two- that poked my arm 4 times wiggling the needle around in my arms, and rupturing my veins ( I have big bruises to prove it) to get an IV in my arm!
All in all it went really well! I barley tore, she came out in only two pushes and was definately a small Baby considering I had gestational Diabetes! Which by the way both our blood sugars were good afterwards! And Halli has shone no signs of infection from the Step B. We did have to stay at the Hospitol for 48 hours. Which wasn't bad except that I missed my lil Heather so much- they didn't allow anyone under the age of 18 in the Hospitol. So Needless to say I didn't get to see Heather for a couple of days, the longest I had been away from Heather had been 7-8 hours!
Our lil family an hour before I was admitted to the Hospital!
39 weeks 2 days
One Day old
Halli Is a very sweet baby! She loves to be touched and Held! When I was getting my ultrasounds every week, Halli always, I mean every time, she had her hands up by her face and is still this way! Halli is Nursing really good! Which is Awesome since it took Heather weeks to nurse as good as Halli is now!

( Isn't this outfit cute- my good friend Shantel gave it to her- I love the 'Bear' Bum!)
Also thanks to our good friends the Drapers for helping with Heather as well!!
When we got to come home- Heather was so excited to see her 'little sister Halli'. And has been mauling her ever since!
We also brought home a baby for Heather! She loves to change her when we change Halli.
So since my diet is finally over .... we got PIZZA good ol cheep lil Caesars pizza! Even Heather was excited , she was sitting on the counter and got her own piece and started chowing down! She ate two whole pieces- deprived a lil?
We gave Halli her first 'sponge bath'. She did really good!
She even showed some Humor
