Welcome Camryn Marie Johnson

Tuesday January 10, 2012- that was the BIG day! Adam and I woke up at 6:00am to make breakfast, since I wasn't going to get to eat until after the c-section. We had eggs, bacon, and chocolate-chip banana pancakes. After breakfast- we both went back to bed until around 9:00am. At 9:00am- we got up & began getting ready. I showered, and Adam began packing his stuff for the hospital. I decided that I didn't want to wash/dry my own hair, so my mom & I went to great clips & I had them wash & dry my hair for me. I also asked the lady to braid my front pieces back, but that was a DISASTER, so I took it out as soon as we got into the car. At 11:30am- Adam and I headed to the hospital. Here are pictures of the delivery (I'll only post the not-so gruesome ones). We checked in & headed to the triage room, where they hooked me up to all the equipment. I got the arm IV (ouch), they monitored Baby J's heartbeat, & my contractions. At 1:45pm-they walked me back to the operating room. I got the spinal block (this is what I was most nervous about, but it wasn't that bad). At 2:00pm- Adam came in & Dr. Hayes began. At 2:11pm- we welcomed Camryn Marie Johnson.
