INTRODUCING.....

Allie Larynn Curtis

Born May 28th at 7:43am...6lbs 13oz 20in

So I hate putting this picture on the blog, but these are always sentimental because it is the first time you get to hold your baby, so I went ahead and put it in for memories' sake:o)

My sister Sarah took these amazing pictures of allie...isn't she so stinking adorable?!!! I think so anyway:o) Labor was SUCH a breeze compared to my labor with Brooklee. I woke up at 1:30am and my water had broke, but I wasn't really having contractions. I went to the hospital and I was dilated to a 4...they had me walk around for an hour to get my contractions going, which worked, and went back and I was a 5! It took me hours, no, days to get to that with Brooklee! I asked for an epidural, which they were afraid to give me thinking it would slow down my labor, which in lots of cases it does, but I told them that it sped it up last time so they went ahead and called the anesthesiologist. It was wonderful! My contractions weren't too bad up to that point, and then I just didn't feel anything! She was born a little less than an hour after I got the epidural, so it worked just like last time!

Brooklee absolutely LOVES her little sister and can't get enough of her, which is scary at times:o) She wants to hold her and feed her and burp her...it gets a little overwhelming, but I wouldn't have it any other way! It is crazy to think that we have two kids now, but I am slowly getting used to the idea of it:o)
