Labor went so well. I pushed for just over an hour and both Mike and I thought it went so smoothly. Mike was a great support, didn't pass and let me sqeeze his hand till it almost fell off!

I had a great nurse that helped me through all the fun phases of labor. she was awesome..gotta love those nurses!!

Time for the Foys to see their newest addition to the family!!! Can't wait for the Lyster family to meet her!

bring on the contractions!

Sunday morning around 3am I awoke to contractions. about 10 min apart. I couldn't sleep so i ate some cereal, played with Griffin and watched the clock tick tock away.
The contractions were only lasting for 30 seconds or so and were kind of sporatic..making me think Braxton Hicks, "false labor".
I called work around 5am to talk with the charge nurse and we agreed that walking probably would be the best for me so I decided to go into work unsure of what the day would bring.

By the middle of my shift they were every 30 min or longer and i was feeling ok most of the time.
Tomorrow we will see if I am progressing.
Tuesday we have a neighborhood get together/ice cream social so I would hate to miss that..so anytime baby wants to come after that would be GREAT!!

When do you think we will have our baby?
