I finally got my pictures uploaded. Now, let's talk about something before you look at them. First of all, this is not how my hair looked all day. I pulled it up so it wouldn't show in the pictures since my head is usually cut off. And I have not been drinking although that grin sure could suggest otherwise.
I love the face in this next one. And when I mentioned it to my talented photographer (aka: Aaron), he said, "did you not want your head in this one?" Ummm.... does it look like I wanted my head in this shot? How often do you see me make this ugly of a face with that wild of hair for a picture I want to show?
But yet, here I am. Posting these for the whole internet world to see. And best part is that I'm embarrassed about my hair and stupid expression, not the fact that my belly is huge and exposed and my tank top is begging for forgiveness. So enjoy! My husband has succeeded in making me look even more ridiculous... :)
The post I have been waiting 2 years to write is finally here and I can't really believe it. On Saturday, I woke up at 8:30 a.m. with BAD contractions. By the 2nd one, I knew I was in "real" labor. They were SO different than the braxton-hicks. I got out of bed and decided that I'd take a bath, until water ran down both legs. The pain after that got pretty unbearable immediately and I was having contractions every 2 1/2 to 3 minutes. So, I called Aaron at work to tell him it was "the big day". He decided I was kidding until I nearly leapt through the phone to wring his neck. :) We got to the hospital an hour later and I was dilated to a 4 and having very active contractions. They quickly got me moved to an L&D room. I got my epidural ( AMAZING - we'll talk about this in its own post soon) at a 6 and then my doctor broke my water. (Apparently at home, it had just leaked a pocket of fluid). After he broke my water, labor started picking up ...
You don't look ridiculous! The cute belly makes up for the hair!
