Finally, after a total of 28 1/2 hours of labor, Allison Jo Crider, is born!!

7 lbs 14oz - 19 inches long

Poor little girl had lots of bruising on her face due to being in a face-up position inside mom... we could both use a little make-up!:)

Daddy is sending a text message to friends and family to announce her birth. He did a great job coaching thru labor... grandma Brenda thought he was going to pass out towards the finaly. She said he turned as white as a ghost. lol

6/14 - Did my water break!?! ... Yes indeedy:)

My water broke at 6:15 a.m. Monday June14th... Neil and I were admitted into our birthing room around 2:30 p.m. We should have went in sooner but I had lots of energy to nest... I was scolded by the nurses because we should have went in right when my water broke
