I completley forgot I even had veins let alone bones in my feet!! I can finally see them! Haha! After an easy 9 months of pregnancy and the easiest labor that fortunatlly I slept through all of it I had our little Scarlett Flesia McRae via c-section. She was born April 11th at 10:23 am weighing 6 pounds 8 ounces and a wopping 20 inches long. I cried as soon as I heard her two little cries she yelpt. I was amazed how beautiful she was and how alert she was! That moment to me seems just like yesterday. I can't belive she's already 3weeks old... It was hard for me having a c-section because I could not hold her right away and didn't see her right away ethier. The recovery went pretty smooth especially because my mom was here. Scarlett is one character and we love her so much. I laugh because she is deffinitly a baby full of surprises. i went into labor at 9:30pm on Friday night right after I got back from my sisters house. They immdeatly started being 5 mintues apart. finally after an hour I called my mom- she hopped in the car with my sister and met me over at hoag in her pjs thinking it would be another false alarm. sure enough it wasn't- i was already at 4 cm and fully enfaced. SURPRISE! the labor was moving really quickly so we all started making bets but i stopped at 6. then finally within an hour i went from 6 to 10 but the doctor still demanded a c-section. Boo. My dad was right on the dot with her weight. he would have been 68 this year. Thanks Dad. I consider Scarlett a gift from you. Here are some pictures- I'll post more soon!
