Sweet November

Natalia Mia Chudleigh
6lbs 3oz 18 inches

11.10.10 The day life REALLY started to matter, the happiest day of my life!



Counting contractions




Basically my water broke 3 weeks early, Dan had to get a ride to the hospital because our car was in the shop (thanks Mason), Mom got on a plane and was there in a few hours, after 12 hours of natural labor I was over it and gave into the epidural ( awesome), freaked out when they put me on oxygen and told me my baby had a cord around her neck (false), pushed 5 minutes and out came the closest thing to heaven anyone could imagine.... AMAZING!




I miss this little face! Time goes by so fast it breaks my heart. I love every new stage but it's so hard to say goodbye to this forever :( It's God's trick so we'll have more :)




Being a mom is THE single best thing in the whole world. Life is now full of so much meaningful purpose. So yes to all of you who wonder... Go get pregnant, it's so worth it!
