She's here!!!

Well everybody it has been a while since we have been here to write. Well our beautiful baby girl is here. Our little LilyAnn Kennaley came to our family on May 4th 2008 at 5:35 P.M. She weighed in at 5 pounds 11 ounces, her height was 19 1/2 inches long but Beth and I still think differently about that... She has to be smaller. Well the way it all started was on Sunday morning at 3:30 A.M. when Beth decided to wake me up and let me know haha. We went a couple hours and just wanted to see if it got any stronger. So we both fell asleep for maybe an hour but Beth woke up in even more pain so we figured it was the real deal. So we got up and got all washed up and ready but we still kept at home till about eleven. From then Beth was checked and was at a 2 and 90% effaced so they gave us two options. 1) Beth sticks it out for bit and and they give her some meds to forget about the pain. or 2) They break her water and get things going. So we obviously went with getting it all started. So after they broke her water things started going pretty hard and long. Beth was in a lot of pain it scared Beth's mom and I. We almost started crying for Beth because it was so sad to watch her in so much pain. They said Beth would get an epidural in about ten to fifteen minutes... So an hour and a half later she got one... That was probably the longest time in Beth's life. After it was all said and done with the epidural they checked Beth and she was a 7 and 100% effaced. They gave us an hour before the next check so I decided to go downstairs to buy a drink with my brother in law Ejay. While I was downstairs I got a phone call to run back upstairs because the babies head was crowning. So when I got back upstairs they started her and after ten minutes our healthy, beautiful baby girl was here!
