The Arrival of Madison McKenna Larsen

YAY!!! Finally Madison McKenna Larsen has joined our family! Madison was born on June 7, 2009 at 10:14pm. She weighted in at 8lbs 2oz and 20inches long! Madison is just amazing.

So I'm on gonna just give the run down of what happened. So I was scheduled to be induced on June 8th and Sunday morning about 9am Dr. Strebel called me from the hospital and said well since I'm up here on call this weekend and its kinda slow why don't you get your stuff together and come on up and lets have the that baby today and of course I was all about that. So I frantically called Carly and said get in your car and head up we are having a baby so she left church and started the drive up. Next I had to text my dad on his cell phone cause him and mom were at church as well. Dad and mom ran home and changed and got ready and came to my house and helped me get things ready to roll. We went and dropped Kaden off. As we were driving I happened to say to my mom that I was kinda scared and Kaden looked over and me and said I don't want you to be scared momma. He is such a sweet little guy!!

So we got to the hospital around noon or so and I got all checked in and got the IV started and all that fun stuff. At 1:00 pm they gave me a small pill in my cervix to get me to dilate and thinned out. About 2pm my contractions started and they weren't to bad for a while so about 7:20 pm I finally decided that I wanted the epidural (with a little begging from my mom too!! She had enough of watching me try and be tuff) Then we just kinda hung around for a while and around 9:00 pm I was only dilated to a 5 so we thought it was gonna be a long night before anything happened so my dad went and got Kaden and brought him in to tell me good night and see me before the baby came well the nurse came in about 10:00 pm and said I was at a 10 and ready to push... we were shocked that I went from a 5 to a 10 in just one hour!! So my dad just took Kaden out to the waiting room and after 4 small pushes Madison was here!! It was an amazing experience to have Kaden come in right after she was born to meet his sister. Kaden loves her so much already. Well here are just a few pictures of Madison.

Baby Update

Well today is June 5th which is my actual due date!!! Still no baby!!! I don't think she is wanting to come to bad. So I went to see Dr. Strebel on wed and we decided that if Madison doesn't come by Monday morning then I get to call up to Labor and Delivery at 6am and see if I can come in! Im so excited yet nervouse so keep a watch and I will update as soon as something goes on!
