Audra Rose

As most of you saw Audra made her big arrival on Tuesday. I was on the list to be induced and got the call from the hospital just before 4 AM. We headed to the hospital where things quickly moved along. At 8 AM the doctor came and checked me and broke my water. At that time I was measuring between 3 & 4 centimeters. Between 10:30 and 11 I had progressed to 5 & 6 centimeters, at that time they said they wouldn't check again until my doctor came by on her lunch. Well come 12:30 my doctor came took one look and could see little Audra's head crowning. Within 10 minutes Audra had made her arrival. The hospital was a little crazy around that time, they had 7 babies born in an hour. We are so thankful for our little Audra she is such a blessing.

As you can see from most of the pictures her head was quite bruised from the quick arrival.

We were blessed to have my mom here with us for Audra's arrival, amongst all the other craziness she had going on.

We were also blessed to have momma Holt here with us as well. Nana brought Gavin in right after Audra's birth. He was not so sure what to think. In this picture he is washing his hands so that he can come see Audra.

Clean at last. Because there were so many births on Tuesday, it took a while for Audra to finally get her bath.

Gavin was much more interested in playing with the remote to the tv than her new sister, but what else is new.

Yesterday late afternoon we were finally able to head home with our new bundle of joy.

We are so thankful for a healthy and safe delivery of our precious baby girl.
