Paisley Grace Adamson was born December 20 at 5:12 pm and weighed 8 lbs 14 oz. What a sweet, perfect little baby she is. We are in love.
We got to the hospital Monday evening and spent the night. Our nurse, Stephanie, started me on an IV and gave me some medicine to get me ready to have Paisley. On Tuesday morning around 7:30, Dr. Wells came and checked me and broke my water. Then our new nurse, Rachel, started me on pitocin to get things going. I got an epidural around 11:30 (thank the Lord for that!). We waited most of the day and around 4:30 Rachel checked and said I was 10 cm and ready to go! I started pushing around 4:45 and Paisley was here at 5:12!
I couldn't help but cry when I saw Dr. Wells holding our baby. It was such a miracle. God really is amazing, and I think His sovereignty may be best displayed in the birth of a baby and the miracle of life.
Paisley is 11 days old today. We got to leave the hospital on Thursday evening; it was great to be home. We had her first pediatrician appointment last Saturday, Christmas eve, and everything looked great. Then, the whole family came to our house for Christmas, including Grammie Nola and Papa Willis. Since then, we have been getting used to being at home, sleeping and eating. Paisley has done a great job adjusting. Poor baby has hiccups all the time, but other than that she is content. We couldn't love her more. What a sweet little blessing!
