Welcome Baby Josephine!!

After making no progress for a week my doctor and I decided for an induction Tuesday morning!

They scheduled me for 8 am and after all the paperwork
and being poked about 5 times attempting

an IV line, they started the Pitocin around 10am.

After about 2 hours my doctor came in and tried

to break my water! I say tried because it took 2 or 3 good pricks to break it. :)

Labor quickly ensued after that!
When the contractions were about unbearable

I felt the lovely pressure of Baby and was checked and within 45 mins I went from a 5 to 9, and ready

to push!

And, about 3 pushes came our new sweet baby girl!

Josephine Ann Volk! At 2:17 pm mountain time,
A beautiful full dark head of hair, 7 lbs 6 oz and 20 inches long!


A petite little thing compared to our Tori at 8 lbs 9 oz 21 inches long!

Both Mom and Baby are doing great! I went without an epidural this time, PAINFUL, but so worth it afterwards!
Here are lots of pictures for my family on the otherside of the country!

Granny and Grandpa Tom came to the hospital to see Josie and bring us Tori. They were wonderful enough to take her for the day while we were at the hospital! Thanks again!
