Eliza Clair Anderson

The past two weeks have been a whirlwind of adjustments, but nonetheless wonderful. My mom and sister got here just in time for sweet Eliza to join us! We were worried they wouldn't make it, but thankfully all went well and they were able to take care of Mauree while we were in the Hospital. It was fun to have them come hang out at the hospital with us each day.
My labor was very short...only 4 hours, but that doesn't mean less painful! How quickly I remembered how much labor hurts! I swore I would never have a baby without an epidural, those things are heavenly and never intend to go without....but if you don't have a choice, I guess it just works out. I wasn't mentally prepared to do it, but all in all now that it is over with, I am happy things turned out as they did. As for next baby, I think I will plan on the good old medication again!
It was so good to have my mom, sister, and niece here. Time goes by way too quickly and we miss them already. Mauree absolutley adores her little sis, and can't wait for her to get bigger so she can play dress up with her. I think the transistion for her is going well and don't think we will have any issues! We feel so blessed to have two beautiful, sweet little girls. They bring us so much happiness. There is nothing greater in life than to love our precious children and watch them grow.
