So as some of you may know.. ELI was born yesterday. I am slightly obsessed with him already.
Just to sum it up for all of you-
Candace has been contracting for the past like eh..two months or so. Thanksgiving when we were all together.. they seemed to be pretty close to each other but she just kept on doing her thing. We are all such busy bees and they didnt seem to phase her. Monday mid-morning at work mom called and told me she was going in to be checked and she would let me know what was going on.
Needless to say a little back and forth, back and forth. ELI WAS COMING. They were going to break her water and have a baybay. :) Luckily by this time I was off work and mom, courtney and I RUSHED to the hospital. um... no need to rush.
We got there- and she was already about 5 CM dilated and things were moving right along. until he stopped and made us wait..and wait. Court and I napped for an hour and as SOON as we were getting some deep sleep mom was FREAKING and yelled 'it was time'.
To be able to witness my nephews birth.. was the most special time in my life so far. Josh delivered Eli, so she could have three more people in the delivery room. We were so blessed to be able to love on Candace and Eli as soon as he was born.
Eli Eugene Prince- You are the most perfect baby I have ever laid eyes on. I am so glad I got to see you enter this world and I will never forget it. You are going to grow up to be the smartest, sweetest and most LOVED baby. I cant wait to see you laugh, become a toddler, go to preschool, highschool proms and many more memories. we sure do love you baby e.
