A Morning To Remember!

Today... has been an eventful one! This morning I got a call around 4:00 a.m. from my sister saying that she has been having heavy contractions since 2:00 a.m. and that she needed to go to the hospital. My sister's husband is in Vietnam and is flying in on Sunday, so I went over and picked her up. We drove quickly to the hospital where they monitored her for about 45 min. before deciding that she was in true labor. By this point she was dilated to a 5 and was moved to a delivery room and an anesthesiologist on his way after his C section. By the time the anesthesiologist arrived, Jennie was having pretty hard contractions... To make a short story shorter, she gave birth to Anneliese Marchant by the time the needle had been placed in her back and ready to go! What a trooper Jennie was! The whole time she wasn't allowed to move because of the needle, and she was giving birth at the same time! The the Dr. who was in another room delivering had his hands tied. Luckily there was another Dr. waiting for a C-section in the hall from the same practice. It ended up being the same Dr. that delivered Taelin for me! He was so calm and just stepped right in like he had been there the whole time! Crazy! I got to be the lucky supporter! It was a wonderful experience being able to be there for my sister in her time of need. She was a trooper and proved to herself that she is stronger than she thought she ever could be!

I love you Jennie! Here is a little slide show of our Morning together! Enjoy!
