On Wed, Sept 28th 2011, 3 weeks and 1 day before her Due Date, and 1 week and 1 day before I was scheduled to be induced (which ironically is tomorrow ;-) Arabella Kaite Rose decided she was tired of the whole pregnancy thing.... as was I. And at 7:30 am my water most DEFINITELY broke. And at 9:28 am, after a realitively short, but very intense labor, with not ONE single push from me.... I do not exagerate here, she catapulted herself into this world weighing only 7 lbs 4 oz (Which is over a lb less than 2 of her sisters, and almost a lb less than her other sister and her brother.)
Things have been an adjustment for SURE. But I am soooooo happy to have this 5th Little Baby, and 4th Little Girl, join our Family.
She brings up the tail for our Family as we are very content to be a Family of 7, and this pregnancy was AMAZINGLY hard during the last 2 months and I truly question my ability to survive another one and not leave my 5 Babies without their Mother.
Arabella is the name of one of Queen Elizabeth I's cousin's and I LOVE it. And Kaite is Kate with a special I for Ivy who has really been an AMAZING Friend and example to our Family (Not to mention taking the other 4 kids at a moment's notice when Bella was born!)
