The Summer of Landry - Part 1

May 12, 2012 - 38 weeks and headed to the hospital!!!

**Funny Story: just before taking this picture, Marci and I locked the keys 

in my car at Walgreens...we laughed until we almost cried.  

One last family pic, just the 3 of us, before we headed to the hospital.

We checked into the hospital around 10:00 p.m., they got me hooked up to monitors and ready to go in no time.  Looking back, I'm fairly certain I had already gone into labor, but at the time, I didn't know :)  My water broke on its own around 2-3 a.m., they started meds around 5-6 a.m., I got an epidural at 

7 a.m. (those things are truly amazing though I think I was blessed with

 one of the easiest labors ever), and then rested and waited...

Waiting for Dr. Robertson

 We had a waiting room full of family including Dr. Robertson's family (seeing as it was also his birthday and Mother's Day) ready to meet this little angel!

At 11:00 a.m. on Sunday, May 13, 2012

Landry Kate Colvin was born!

6 lbs. 4 oz., 20 inches, and absolutely perfect!!

Matt was one proud daddy!

First family pic as a family of 3 

(well, 4 given Doolie-Belle)

After a quick hospital stay, we packed this little cutie up 

and headed home on Monday, May 14.

One last hospital pic with her wreath 

(it's hard to see but the pennants said "Landry Kate").

Buckled up and ready to go!

And that's how the Summer of Landry began!

Stayed tuned for Part 2!!
