6 Beautiful Candice years

Happy Birthday my sweet Beautiful Angel baby!!

6 years ago on this day (my "first" due date) my water broke at 5:30am thankfully I was awake and eating an unusual bowl of cereal. (One of my favorite foods when I was pregnant with her)

However, it was not the "normal" water break. I actually felt like I had to "P" I sat on the toilet ALL morning, going back and forth in such confusion. I had a scheduled Dr appointment at 10am so I waited, I did not want to be an annoyance to anyone. Thankfully Dad didn't miss any of the

 (2week - weekly appointments) So he was home that day. I started to feel funny, my stomach was tightening but it was not painful. The DR confirmed my water break at the appointment and sent us on our way to the hospital.  

(that was another funny story, dad will gladly tell you that one it is one of his favorite stories and he tells it so well)

We stopped at home to grab a few things, more like pack my bag and put the car seat in the car. Get ready for our delivery. I started to get scared. I called all our family and let them know its "GO" time.

Finally I was ready to go, still no painful contractions. As a matter of fact I did not feel any contractions because I got hooked up to the epidural right away. PERFECT labor!

Everyone started coming in, so excited for the arrival of my first baby, grand baby, and niece. We all waited patiently and as we were waiting I also got to "re announce" my engagement to dad, he had asked me the night before. SO much excitement to take in less then 24 hours.

Then 5:30pm came rolling around faster then you could ever imagine. And there you were a

 6pound 15ounce Candice Sue!

You have been a heaven sent angel baby since that day.

I am so THANKFUL for you!

 

(that is my small story for now)
