On January 12th, 2011 our baby girl arrived into this world. Words could never describe the anticipation of meeting this new spirit. Ben and I had stayed at the Hampton Inn in Cedar Cedar the previous night. We knew the following day we were going to finally meet Rhen, and I could not sleep for nothing. First, I must share how frustrated I was to find out that our room had no bathtub...WHAT!?! I was ticked and the poor lady at the front desk knew it :) I settled for an ice cold pop and some soduku while Ben caught got some rest. Between my GINORMOUS belly, noise from the adjoining room, and nerves, I had given up on sleep. Not sure why I was nervous, I mean this was my fourth time and I should be a pro by now right...wrong!! I think I was more nervous than ever before. Perhaps I thought that my enormous strength and super fit body were not ready for this lol We got to the hospital at 7 am and they started the process. I met my nurse and I LOVED her! Things got under way and at approximately 3 pm Dr. Sanders broke my water. I went from a 6 to a 10 in less than 15 minutes and with three super, amazing, rockstar pushes, Rhen was here. WOW...I am a mother of four children! I still can't believe it! I have come to know that I will not do everything right and my home will not always or possibly never be spotless, but I will give this everything I have. I want to enjoy the journey NOW.
