Moving on up....to the Other side of the hospital!


Hi guys! We've gotten a few hours of sleep so I thought I'd try to give you a little update and encourage anyone who wants to to come by and visit! We've been moved to a semi-private room (though we're the only ones in here for now), #4118. If you want to come see our cuddly, HAIRY, little girl, (or us :) ), feel free to come by! They tell us that they will move us to a private room as people move out, so we'll put that room number on here as well when we move there.
Kristy's doing great! I tell you things could not have gone better. She made the wise decision to go to the epidural and that made things go very well. She did a great job making it to 6cm before being confined to the bed with the addition of the epidural. There were no complications, and shortly thereafter we were pushing! It was quite humorous (and very touching) to see the two docs, one going off call, and one coming on, fighting over who got to deliver her. Dr. Pete won out, but only because Dr. Lopiccolo got to sit bedside and help hold Kristy's leg!
I got to help give Caroline her first bath, and she's been doing great ever since! Thank you all for your comments, thoughts, prayers, and words of encouragement! We couldn't ask to have better people in our lives! We look forward to seeing you all soon! I'll post a few more pictures on here once we get a little more room in our private room! Post to you again soon!

Congratulations you two!! She is so precious :-) I hope you know that I'll probably be singing the Neil Diamond song every time I see her. I hope to be able to stop by after work tomorrow. Congrats again and God bless your new family!
