It's about time I update the baby blog with the birth of our baby! I guess it just slipped my mind but then again it is a bit preoccupied at the moment.

Rori Lyn was born May 6th, 2010 at 7:44pm. She weighed 8lbs 5oz and was 20 1/2 inches long. I was in labor about 13 hours but the actual pushing was only about an hour and a half; the rest of the time I was pretty relaxed with my epidural. Mom thought it was hilarious that I was just lounging watching TV while I was in labor.
Rori is the most precious baby even if I am biased. See for yourself:Russ got to spend Friday thru Monday at home enjoying his new family and then had to work in Tulsa the rest of the week. Rori and I did some major bonding but really missed Russ. She is good tempered and (knock on wood) doesn't keep us up all night.

Here she is with her daddy and Grandparents Temple:
We just took this picture today (9 days old):

So tomorrow is the big day. Starting to get nervous but excited to get back to 'normal' physically anyway. I can't wait to see her. We're both so excited. I'll post pictures as soon as possible!

We are scheduled to induce this Thursday the 6th!
I went to the doctor today and I haven't made any more progress but I am dilated to 4cm and she seems to think I am ready physically just need that extra push. I'm starting to feel comfortable opening some of the packages of diapers and wipes etc. and finishing up all the last minute details around the house. Luckily I will be finished with finals tomorrow and am officially on maternity leave from work so I will have time to get everything done in the next few days. We are so excited!
