Worth the wait.......

Sorry I took so long posting but our room doesn't have wireless!!! Tragedy! I just walked down the hallway and opened up blogger so I could post, writing it in my room and then I will go back down the hall and hit the button. :)

I am very pleased to welcome Kacey Joleane Layla to our family!!!!! She was born yesterday (May 28) at 9:12 am. She weighed 7 pounds, 12 ounces and was 20 inches. 10 fingers and 10 toes and a full head of black hair!!!!





I know I am a bit biased but I do think she is perfect!!! I will write out the birth story this weekend after we are settled at home but the short version is that the beginning part of the induction took 11 hours, labor was 22 including 3 hours of pushing. Remember that birth plan? Yeah, every single part of the birth process ended up out the window. Oh well, we have a very healthy girl, I feel great and we even managed to avoid an emergency c-section at 2am that almost happened.

About that name... Kacey is just one we heard and really liked, Joleane is a combo of my paternal grandmother's name Joanne and my maternal grandma's middle name Jeane (which as a bonus is also my mom's middle name too!), Layla is my third name so Kacey and I get to share it :)

I'll definitely get on this weekend and write more and share some more pictures!!! Thanks for all your well wishes and great name guesses!!!!

To those of you still in the trenches and still reading, I promise you, every single tear is worth it. Keep at it, you will achieve this dream. I hope it's much sooner than you expect!!!
