New Years Eve


I don't have any pictures of new years eve because we were sitting in the Logan hospital waiting for baby Addy to arrive. We never would have thought that this is how our night would go. Stacie went to the hospital at 10:00 that morning to get started. All of us sisters (and Kirany) and my mom and dad got to Logan at about 3:00. We had a little bit of shopping to do and we went to eat at The Olive Garden. We got to the hospital at about 6:00. She was not dilating very fast. So we all took a seat in the waiting room and began our 11 hour wait. At about 10:00 we went to Wal Mart and got pajama bottoms and some cards. So that was a good time waster. But by about 3:00 in the morning we were so tired that we could hardly stand it. But we could not stand the thought of going home and not getting to see that baby. So we stuck it out. I think the nurses thought we were crazy. Especially since I had my 6 year old little girl with me. But she is a night owl just like the rest of us. So she was fine. Finally at around 5:30 little sweet Addy made her way into this world. She was so cute. We were standing out in the hall right outside of her room and we heard her cry for the first time. It was the sweetest little cry. She is going to be a sweet heart just like her mom. After we all got to see her (I got to hold her the longest) we headed for home. We all went to sleep and slept most of the day. It is such a blessing to belong to such an awesome family. We are all so close. I don't know what we would do without each other. At least I don't know what I would do without my family. They are the best. Times like this really make you realize how important family is. And I am grateful to belong to the best family possible.
