Sweet Baby Celeste

We welcomed Celeste Ann Lindsay May 27th at 5:11p.m. She weighed 9 lbs. 2 oz. and was 21 inches long. She was 2 weeks 3 days early and we were glad she decided to come early. I went in Tuesday and got stripped to almost a 6, he didn’t have to try very hard before he said ”oh, I think I am going to stop you there and let you get home and get things ready and we will probably see you this afternoon or tonight.” I started having some contractions, but not consistent so we had a long night. The next morning not much difference until about 10:30a.m., I called Chad and told him they were pretty consistent and I was going to take a shower and get ready. We called and told the hospital we were coming, took our time, dropped the kids off and headed up. We got up there about 2:00 and still nothing major, but consistent so they had me walk for about 10 min. then Dr. Ellis came over to check me and broke my water and said to call when I was ready, things went really fast after that, almost too fast. I started having major contractions and asked for my epidural, they tried and I was so far that it wasn’t working at all. I said I needed something, so they hurried and did a spinal, soooo much better after that. She came fast and she is beautiful! The kids absolutely adore her; they came to see me the next morning. CJ looked at her and started to get teary eyed and I said “what’s wrong buddy?” he said “oh, they are just tears of joy.” Quinn was holding her a little later and said “oh, she is gorgeous, just look at her little armpit.” Carissa saw her for the first time and said “Wow, I just love her, I so proud of you mom!”
