The beginning

Hi All!

Welcome to my blog! My name is Marit, I plan to write daily to share with you all my adventures. I think I will start with Mom's belly and getting me out of it.

Mom woke dad up early Saturday morning telling him that her water broke! Mom called doctor Amy at the hospital and she said to come in when she was ready, no big rush, just to get there sooner than later. Mom wasn't feeling me push inside of her yet so she and dad went along their business while I started my packing of getting out of mom's womb. Mom and dad finally got to the hospital around 10:30am Friday, they met the nicest lady, nurse Karen. Karen took mommy through all the steps she would have to take to get me out of her belly. Time went by, mom got really grouchy (at least that's what it sounded like on the inside) and she pushed and pushed but I had some problems with the umbilical cord being too short! Doctor Amy was getting very worried about my heart beat going way down, so far down that she wanted to take me out sooner than mommy could get me out herself! The next thing I know Mom, Dad, me, and Doctor Amy oh yah- and a pile of nurses and other doctors filled the operating room. Some time went by, I felt Doctor Amy calling for me, and the next thing I knew she grabbed me by the head and I was out for my first visit with the world! I came out of Moms belly at 1:05am, at 7 pounds 8 ounces and about 20 inches long!

Below are some pictures that a very nice nurse of Mommy's took. Dad has more but these are a good idea of how the whole thing came out. Until next time......

Love-Marit
