(Oct 3rd) I went to my last appointment on the 2nd and they told me that all we had to do was go home and wait for the hospital to call us when they had room for us since we induced. So after we dropped Marley off and got the stuff done we needed to we anxiously waited for the call. Dr. Newman said it could come anytime after midnight. I woke up almost every hour to check them phone. I was afraid the call would come in but the phone wouldn't ring and we would end up missing our window. At about 6 we couldn't sleep anymore so we decided to get ready for the day. At about 8 we still hadn't gotten the phone call so we decided to go get some breakfast. We went to McDonald's and on our way back we witnessed a guy wreak on his motorcycle Marvin pulled over to help. It turned out that when he went to turn the corner his wheel came out from under him and he crashed. When we were done helping the guy with his bike Marvin said he needed to go check on some job sites. So I agreed to go along since we hadn't gotten the call yet. At 9:30 we got to the first job site. Marvin told me he just had to stop and check to see if something had gotten done. I have been married to Marvin long enough to know that when he tells me that we will be there for about an hour at least. We ended up being there until 12. The best thing about construction is there is always something that can be done and the best thing about Papa is he will always find it. Finally we were able to leave. I was about to tell Marvin that I wanted to go see Marley since we were still waiting. As we got in the car and started to drive away Marvin's phone rang. I was so excited it was the hospital telling me that they were sorry it took so long but they had been really busy with deliveries and they were ready for us to come in. We told them we would be there shortly and headed over.
When we got to the hospital we filled out all the paperwork and they took us to our room.

The board that tells me who my nurse is.
Once we got all settled in our room all we had left to do was wait. I was dilated to a 5 and they broke my water. The contractions started to come on stronger and right when I decided to get my epidural they came in to tell me that the guy that does them was going to be a while because he had to go in for a C section. I waited for an hour waiting for him to come. By the time he got there I was dilated to a 6. I finally got my meds in and I was able to rest. About an hour after I got my meds I told the nurse it was time to push. They checked me and called Dr. Newman. Once he got there Marvin said I pushed for about 6 min and Paisley was here.
Paisley May Lunt
Happy Momma

After Paisley was born we waited in the delivery room for another hour or so and then they took us to our recovery room.
They took her foot prints
Gave her a bath.
Paisley is a very good baby. She sleeps most of the time and at night she wakes up twice for about 30 min and then goes back to sleep. We are so blessed to have her in our lives and we are looking forward to what the future has to hold for us and our little family
