So.....I haven't done even a slightly decent job with this blog thing. Since my last update, I was placed on bedrest due to preterm labor concerns, then went into preterm labor on January 13th.....then "rested" (meaning did as little as possible to run my home despite running it anyway.) We were blessed with visits, meals, and prayers! And praise The Lord! She stayed in there to cook to full-term.
Ada Louise decided to come in a big way. Water broke movie-style at about 7 am on march 12th. We arrived at the hospital around 8..... Checked into labor and delivery around 8:20ish and were holding our sweet, second Murphy-girl at 10:06 am. Truly, no sooner than I had decided I didn't want to deliver a second baby without pain relief....I had delivered my baby, one pound larger, WITHOUT pain meds...amazing what you can do when there is no other option. ;)
I have had a ROUGH recovery. For the purposes of this blog, I will remember this without needing to provide details.
Ada is amazing! A sweet, snuggly, smiley girl who sleeps well like her sister (4.5-6 hour stretches by two weeks). Evie is the most loving big sis ever. She constantly wants to snuggle her sister and has been such a big help to me, fetching things and entertaining Ada for short periods.
I really will post pictures on the next blog post. Which really will be soon(ish). :)
