baby lexi




lexi came to us on Jan. 17th 2008. the little booger was too stubborn to come 17 days before that so i could get a tax break! it was acually a great expirience ! birth is easy for me, pregnancy, not so much. i was a dummy with blake and waited to 7 cm to get an epidural so it didnt even work, so with lexi i was prepared, i told them to start those drugs before they started the pitocin...i didnt want to feel anything this time.and i didnt. it was great, i pushed her out in a mere 4 minutes! blake took a little longer...10 minutes. mike thought i couldnt improve that time! i showed him! he acually told me after blake was born that i just had to beat that time with the next kid. hes lucky he didnt get smacked! i looked at him and just said "i dont think you know what i just did," in a very drugged up voice, probably slurring my words. but that stuck with me, and i was determined to push this one out faster! and sure enough the first words out of mikes mouth were "great jobs only 4 minutes" not "oh we have a beautiful baby" or anything like that! just, you beat the record!
