As most of you know I was due with Elin on the 16th of October but, like, Ella her due date came and went. Luckily I was able to convince my doctor to do a scheduled induction on October 20th. So on October 18 Jon and I really started getting ready for the hospital - packed the bag, did some chores around that house that needed to be done, and started to get mentally prepared for bringing home a baby.
As it turned out, it was good that we got everything ready because on at around 6:00 a.m. on the 19th, my water broke, while I was still in bed. It was the weirdest sensation I have ever expierenced. For some reason, I remained pretty calm. I woke up Jon and told him my water just broke and he was pretty funny, he jumped out of bed and said, "what do we do?"
I took a shower and we headed to the hospital. By the time we were there, I was in hard labor and somewhat annoyed at how slow the nurses seemed to be moving. Fortunatly, I didn't have to wait long because Elin was born a few short hours later at 9:03 a.m. (an the epidural came just in time :)!
Ella was instantly in love with her baby sister! She was so sweet and wanted to give soft hugs and kisses!
