On Monday, October 26 at 10:06 a.m. we welcomed Layla Joy into the world! I had a much better experience with my c-section this time. My doctor and my anesthesiologist were awesome. And like I had mentioned, my friend Susie was my anesthetist (and photographer!). Things went very well. I had one episode during surgery when my blood pressure dropped really low and I felt really “out of it” but they gave me meds that quickly brought it back up and it was smooth sailing after that.
I’ll tell more about my birth story later but for now I’ll just share a photo. Here is our new little princess!

She is beautiful!!
Oh Laura! She is so beautiful!
Thanks y’all! We like her.
I think she’s a keeper!
