Miss Macy Wales Arnold finally arrives...




Well, I did it....I finally made my grand entrance into this world and I can say, I sure did it in dramatic fashion!!! But, really, did anyone expect me to do it differently?!




Mom went into labor @ 2:20 am on Wednesday, July 16th. Since daddy lives in Ft. Wayne during the week, Grandma Goshert was staying with my mom and helping her out. She had to talk my mom into going to the hospital!!! Daddy got the call and drove home and made it in time to help mom get checked into the hospital.




Everything was going great and we all thought (docs and nurses both!) I would be here by midnight...and mom was so excited because they wouldn't let her eat, so she was starving! But, I had other plans. After 2 1/2 hours of pushing, I had not moved at all....and it was getting unsafe for me and mom....so, the doctor came in and told mom and dad to get ready for a C-Section.




Daddy looked so handsome in his scrubs...much hotter than McDreamy or McSteamy. At 1:47 am, on Thursday, July 17th, I finally got to meet my mom and dad. I came out screaming...I definitely have mom's lungs!




I was 8 lbs. .3 oz and 21 1/4 inches long.




I'm a very happy baby and I'm glad to be home! I love all my big brothers and sisters --- even if they are furry and have 4-legs!!




I'll make sure mom keeps this updated as much as possible ---- Aunt Allison has been getting on mommy's case about making a blog, so she promises to try to keep it updated!!
