7:30am-Off to the hospital to be induced!
I recieved my first gel at 7:45am
they had me sit in bed for an hour, and then get up and walk around for an hour. the walking part was pretty tuff, the contractions started with in the forst 20minutes of laying in bed. after the first gel (2 hour time period) the nurse checked to see if i was anymore dialated, i was a 4 and so i did not need the other two gels. The contractions started to get more intense with each one, but luckly heath and my mom were there to coach me through my breathing. i asked for my epidural about 11:00am and the anesthesiologist can in about 12 noon. The doctor who put in the epidural was AMAZING! i didn't hardly feel a thing and he explained everything before he did each step. Within 20 minutes i fealt warm and tingly from my abdomine down. the epidural was sooooooooo good that i could still wiggle my toes and move my legs a litttle bit, but fealt absolutly no contraction pain. i was rather tired, so i took a nap for an hour. I could feel some cramping/contraction pain on my left side, so the nurse checked me again and to her surprise, i was a fully dialated 10!!! mind you, the doctor informed me that i would probably not start pushing till about 6pm and i was fully dialated at 2:30pm. the nurse said that the longer i wait to push, the further she will make her way down the birth canal by her self, so i waited about 20 minutes and then the nurse checked me again and her head was already starting to crown, so we geared up and started pushing. the doctor came at about 3:10pm and the fun began. i push off and on for about 20 minutes and er little precious head and body perfectly came out! she started crying instantly and she was herfectly pink! I have never seen a more perfect and beautiful baby! I could not have asked for a more PERFECT labor, and overalll not as bad as i thought it was going to be! Here are some pictures of our sweet little girl, ENJOY!

buying time, Burnt mountains and headbands
I am off of work for 7 weeks and i have been rather bored this week awaiting the arrival of my little girl. so i decited to make some more head bands for her, except these will fit her little head and the others i made before are for 6+months. i made them with knee hight nylons for the band and i just cut and sewed then end together, and then i got flowers from michaels, detatched the backs, melted them flat, hot glues the jewel in the middle and them hot glued the flower to the nylon band, i had lots of fun doing it!
This past sunday morning our beautiful mountains were set on fire by some STUPID campers. these are some pictures of sunday afternoon. the fire is still going today (thursday) and is only 20% contained. its really windy this time of year so the fire people are having one H of a time getting it under controll. it has burned some more than 18,000 acres and still burning. some of my most favorite places on the peaks are gone and it makes me really really sad to think about it. W e just need to pray for rain, for that is most likely the ONLY thing that will put the fire out, if they can't get it out, say good bye to snowbowl and pretty much the entire mountain range : (Posted by the hatch patch at 12:09 PM 1 comments

My little Saturday project!
I found these cute little hats on line for realy really cheap and i went to michaels and bought the flowers. i hot glues them to some clips from sally's beauty supple and attached ribbon, i think they turned out really really cute! the flowers have clips on them so they are interchangable.

Barbies yet?
Hello everyone! i am now 7 months! yay! 12 more weeks to go! to me i look big, but to the rest of the world, i guess im not. i keep getting people asking if im like 4 or 5 months along, they give me a sevearly dirty look when i tell them i am 7 months. they are just jelouse : ) thats what i tell myself, so i don't say something rude back : ) !! she kicks and does summer salts ALOT! she gets most excited when i sing to her in the morning! she also thinks its fun to play at 2 am, but mom does not think that is so fun! The other day heath and I were at the store, and heath saw some barbies and turned to me and said "Honey, i think i should pick out a barbie for Ella, do you think she would like that?" it was soooooooooooooo cute i was laughing so hard, and he was totally seriouse. i had to explain to him that she probably would not touch a barbie until age 2, but it was a very good thought! He is going to be such a good dad!
Hope you all have a Happy Easter weekend!
