The Arrival.
On September 1, 2011 I had a Doctors appointment at 11am. Dr. Graham told me I was dilated to a 2. Big deal, I had been at a 2 for almost 3 weeks. I was 2 days overdue and so ready for this little girl to arrive. Right after the appointment I started having contractions 10 minutes apart. Being a mother of 2, I had things to do... I went to Austin's meet and greet at school, grocery shopping, soccer practice, and got dinner on the table. (*I'm so thankful for my mom being here before and after Alivia arrived, she is such a huge help, love her). Finally in the evening I sat down to relax and of course the first back pain hit, real labor contractions. I took a shower and went in a quiet room by myself. Just me and my exercise ball. When my contractions were 3 minutes apart we headed to the hospital. When I arrived I was dilated to almost a 6. Admitted at 10:35pm, pushed at 12:55am, had Alivia at 1:08am. Everything went perfectly. Our little bundle of joy had finally arrived, and we are so in love.
