Faster than Lightning!!





Well, our little Paige is here, and she came faster than lightning! A quick little run down on her arrival. I started having contractions around 3:00 a.m., woke up Bart to time them, jumped in the bath, started putting on make-up, packed (sortof) a bag, grabbed clothes for my kids, grabbed the kids out of bed and headed to the hospital. Arrived at the hospital at 3:50 a.m., called my mom to come and get Rylee and Cade, asked where the "anasthesi-freakin-ologist" was, and was politely told he was coming from Springville to Timp Hospital. They checked me and I was dialated to a 6-7. Three nurses were rushing as fast as they could to get me situated, and since I tested positive for Group B Strep, they needed to get 2 bags of antibiotics in me. So, they checked me 5 minutes later and I was an 8, at this point I realized the "anasthesi-freakin-ologist" probably was not going to make it! They checked me again 5 minutes later and I was a 9, at which time I looked up to see my OB walk in, he came and checked me, I was a 10. He put on a lab jacket and away we went! Me screaming like the ladies on TLC's a Baby Story, even though I have always said I would never do that! After 3 pushes, she was born at 4:24 a.m.. She is beautiful with a head full of dark hair! We love you Paigey, and even though you came a little too fast for my liking, we are sure glad you are here!
