Crock Pot Baby

Well, if there isn't a better time to start showing them who's boss around here, it's after this silly stunt of putting me in the crock pot to take pictures.  I hope they know I am more than just a "game hen".  Don't worry, I got them good by peeing on Daddy during the photo session.  Again, it's about keeping them on their toes.  Speaking of toes, are those mine??

Sleeping Savannah

I love to sleep; I know mom is wondering how long that will last.  I even sleep well at night, but don't worry, I won't keep that up for too long.  Soon I'll have to start waking them up a bit at night just to keep them on their toes.  They say you can't spoil parents, but I don't know that I believe that theory.

Finding my Finger

I'm not sure what this is, but it sure tastes good!!

SAVANNAH came just in time for Daddy to cut the umbilical chord, run out the door and take his Ophthalmology board exam.  We started at 2:49 AM with my water breaking.  We arrived at the Hospital at 5:30 AM(ish), and encountered "Nurse Ratchet".  While putting my IV, she curtly told me: "I don't trust a pregnant woman farther than I could throw this building" and promptly proceeded to let me know all the rules of "her" hospital.  Luckily, there was a shift change at 7AM. I was happy to have natural  labor as I planned, I thought I might have to have more intervention with an injured tail bone, two hernias and a sore pubic symphysis (sp?).  Thank goodness for priesthood blessings and such a supportive husband to "coach" me through labor!!  I couldn't have done it without him.  We also were so grateful to have our Doctor there for transition and pushing.  He was awesome, especially when he saw that I needed to refocus and get a hold of myself!!
