We would like to announce our new arrival: Emily Audrey Lindic! She was born Tuesday, March 23, 2010 at 12:05pm. She weighed 7lbs. 9oz. and was 19.5 inches long.
The labor was pretty easy. My water broke at home at 4am and we went into the hospital around 5am. They got me all situated and hooked up to the gazillion machines and I was slowly progressing, I got my epidural (love those) then they started some pitosin (sp?) around 10am, and kept increasing the dose about every hour, by the third increase the contractions were right on top of one another and VERY intense! I pushed for about 3 minutes and she was here!
She is so amazing, she did not even cry when she was born, she just squeaked a little. She seems very content and happy, is eating really well, and sleeping a lot. Our first night home was a little rough, she was very fussy from about 7pm until 1am, but then slept in until 9:30. We are so very happy to have her and feel very lucky to have such a perfect and complete family.
Evan is very excited about her, he always wants to help and keeps saying how cute and funny she is. He is so compassionate and gentle with her and I know he is going to be the best big brother ever.

Could you have asked for anything to go any better than that. I hope that is how mine goes. I was so jealous when Kristen said your water broke- 10 days early too! I told her to make me a quilt (a really small one) and finish it so that maybe I would have the same luck.
She is so beautiful. i love the picture of Evan holding Emily.
