Morgan Maria Beasley Arrived

Well she is here! Maria had an appointment Friday morning at 8:15 am. She was having some good contractions throughout the night, but they were about 10 minutes apart. When she started to get up in the morning and get ready they went to about 5-6 minutes apart. We figured we'd go to the appointment and see what Dr. Snider said.
He said she was dilated to about a 4, we asked him if we should go to the hospital or not. He said it was really up to us, and that we'd probably be there soon either way. Shortly after that she had another contraction, so he said I'm calling the hospital to tell them you're coming over. We told him Maria usually has a fast labor, especially when her water breaks. He said good because he had an appointment at 11:00am that he had to be to, but he also wanted to do our delivery. He sent us on our way and said he would be over in a half hour to break her water.
We got all registered, checked in, and Maria was just sitting down on the bed after changing and in walked Dr. Snider to break her water. This was quite concerning to both us and we knew it as we looked at each others faces going white. With Maycee, Maria's water was broken and before she could get the epideral working Maycee was born. We did not want another one of those.
Luckily Morgan was patient and didn't come until we were all ready. The doctor came in to check Maria and said "Oh, you're ready when ever you want to push go ahead." One push later and out came little Morgan.
She was born at 12:32pm, weighing 8lbs 2ozs, 19 inches long. Our heaviest baby and also the shortest.
Nothing like a shot to welcome you into the world.
Gorgeous Girl. She is awesome. I'm so grateful for her. We are thinking about having 3 more! Okay I lied. We are probably topped off.

First ride in the car seat

Meet the "Wild Bunch." Do you think we could get our own reality TV show?

Morgan is home. Maria doesn't like to spend much time by herself in the hospital, so she is out as soon as she is able. Special thanks to the Taylors for allowing the "Wild Bunch" to invade their home last night. We're so grateful to have our children, we have quite the adventure ahead of us. Thank goodness!
