We woke up bright and early on friday and headed to the hospital to be induced. I was really nervous for the whole experience because Lachlynn's labor and birth were so horrible and scary. To my surprise it went so smoothly! They started my induction around 10 am and I labored till 6 And then got my epidural. There was a time that my dilation was at a stand still. I had dilated to a 6 and then just was not making a lot of progress. I was getting frustrated and worried. So I asked J.D. for a blessing and in the blessing he asked that my body would respond to the medication and dilate faster. I wanted my mom in the room for the delivery and so she was there the whole time with us at the hospital. Thinking we had more time till baby came, my mom left and got something to eat. Well it wasn't 20 minutes after the blessing that the dr came in to check me and said I was complete and ready to push! We were shocked!! The answer to that prayer was so fast! We tried to find my mom, but couldn't and she had left her phone in the room so she didn't have it with her. Well I pushed for about 10 minutes and she was born! My mom walked into the room literally seconds after she was born. We were all surprised that I went from being a 6 to having a baby in about 30 minutes! How grateful I am for a Heavenly Father who loves us and knows us personally.
Getting her first bath
Lachlynn got some presents that day at the hospital for becoming a big sister. We told her that this was victoria's birthday and she kept asking if we were going to have cake to eat. So on the way to the hospital my mom bought a small cake and everyone sang happy birthday to Vitoria and ate cake.
