Well, we did it.
We done gave birth.
She’s healthy, she’s pink, she poops and sneezes and we couldn’t be happier.

I’ll probably write out more of my birth story later, but the quick version is –
1:00 am awoke with contractions
4:30 am went to hospital where I was dilated to 4
8:00 am still dilated to four and enjoying the fruits of back labor
1:00-2:00 pm I went from 5cm to 10cm dilation
2:00 pm Nora Lea entered the world with a full head of curly hair and some juicy lips

James and I wanted to go drug-free and I can’t believe I did.

I’d like to take all the credit, but I actually did call the anesthesiologist in.
Apparently Nora Lea wanted none of that.
We had to kick the poor woman out a few minutes later, and I gave birth.

Can you believe it? I’m a mom.

Also, because lots of people have asked, we’re registered at Amazon.

We’re also throwing a Meet the Baby party in August, to which you’re already invited.
