Amelia

Yesterday I got an early morning phone call from our youngest daughter to let me know she was at the hospital... her water had broke. We weren't expecting Amelia Mae to be making her debut just yet (Oct. 7th was the due date) but then babies have a way of coming into the world when they are good and ready...they are not on anyone's time table but their own.

As the gamma...I couldn't stand it and had to call around lunch time to see how our daughter was doing. She couldn't bite the bullet any longer and had to get the epidural. For her...it was a great relief.

Finally got the call that Amelia Mae Jumper had arrived at 5:30 PM and she weighed 7# 3 oz. and 19 1/2" long. The Dr. was tending to our daughter and I didn't expect her to call me, figuring she was totally exhausted and hungry, but she did call her mom and dad later in the evening when everyone had left and it was quiet.

We are all very excited that Miss Amelia is here...that she and her momma are doing fine.

Now the fun begins....
