Hello World, Hello Little Girl

> These pics are all out of order but here's a little story about Marlee's big debut!
>
> Labor started Thursday night and I counted contractions all night until about 6am. We dropped Walker off at a friends house and headed to the hospital. We stayed in a holding room for about 2 hours while I progressed and they checked us in at 10am.
>
> I took an epidural (praise the Lord) and continued to labor, just a lot more peacefully! At 3:30 I was dilated to a 5 and they told me to expect 5 more hours of labor. At 4:45 I felt like I was going to die (full transition). And at 5:00pm Marlee Grace was born!
>
> Delivery wasn't kind to me so I ended up with some repair work along with a blood transfusion. But a very healthy 8 lb 13 oz baby girl!
>
> We were surrounded with family and friends at the hospital and of course my sweet husband was by my side for every moment. I'm thankful to not have had a repeat c-section because experiencing delivery was incredible.
>
> We are home now, recovering and adjusting. All I need is a nanny, a maid and some more naps. Is that too much to ask??
>
> Family has been here helping out, we truly couldn't do it without them!
>
> Here are some pics of our first week home. It's flying by already!!
>
> Thanks for all the thoughts, prayers and well-wishes!
