Four Real...Ashley Ruth 4/10/16

April 10, 2016 was not another day of false alarms - Ashley Ruth Schlensker joined our family.  The most common reaction to little Ash - "Wow! Look at all that hair!"  Lindsey once again - was awesome.  Unlike Brooklyn, Lindseyshe even had to push once to get Ashley out.  My timeline notes:

2:30am Todd wakes up to Lindsey's 3rd contraction - she says "I'll let you know"
3:10 Brett comes
3:40 Lindsey goes to room
3:55 Todd rejoins Lindsey
Stephanie triage nurse- still 4cm -
Dani came to visit for while
started to walk at 4:25
Didn't get far - painful contraction (supposed to get rechecked at 5:00)
Lindsey demanded 4:45 check and at 5cm
Admitted - epidural at 5:40 (Room 3111)
Amanda - nurse
6:12 7cm
New nurse - Dawn
8:30 - 9cm
Dr. Altman comes to deliver (Mae had Wang, Anna had Jackie Martin , and Brooklyn had Wang)
Ashley Ruth 8lbs 7oz at 8:55am 21-1/4"

In triage for the 2nd time in the last 55 hours

But triage didn't last long

Always a very sweet pregnant woman...once the epidural is in

Ummm - are they supposed to be that purple?

Someone just informed her she looks like Aunt Kylee as a baby

Clean 'er up!

Big baby

Love the eye goop
 
Two beautiful girls

Never been a big "BIG bow" guy - but this is the first child we've had where they've had these and I think they are terrible and awesome all at the same time

Yes - sleep child...sleep

Mom is always ready to eat minutes after

We've never had a thumb sucker - we're not going to start now

Sorry Ash - the quiet time in your life is now over
 
 
 

"I wanna hold it!"

Hard to keep "it" away from Brooklyn

Brooklyn finally let others have a turn
