We found out we were pregnant on 10/12/2005. I knew because I am regular and I was late. I took an over the counter test that came out positive. I then made an appointment for the obgyn. He also confirmed it. We kept it a secret until after we got home from our vacation to Indiana. While we were here, I had my mom to pick up a t shirt for Kenzie from the hospital that she works at. The shirt said "I'm the big sister". When we arrived back to Florida, we had Kenzie wearing the shirt. We parked the car and let Kenzie go running into Yaya and Pappy's house. Aunt Amanda saw the shirt first! She was so excited for us. Yaya saw it second and looked excited, but unsure at the same time. Pappy wasn't home yet. When we heard them comming in the driveway, I held Kenzie up while Amanda videotaped it. Kenzie was screaming "Pappy" while he was reading, "I'm the WHAT?" "No, Ryan is this a joke" Ryan says no. I had what they considered an uneventful pregnancy until May 14, 2006. It was mothers day. My water broke, and we were waiting for contractions before we called the doc. They never came, I called the doc the next morning who told us to go to the hospital so they could check my fluid sack. It was broken, they induced me. I got an epidural and at 501 pm, Madison was born. She was having some issues with her breathing. I got to hold her for like two seconds before she was taken to the Nursery and I didn't get to see her until the next morning. I got some well needed sleep. The next morning she was transferred to Kosair for supervision, probably a good move. She collapsed her left lung on that evening, therefore she ended up with a chest tube, ngt, vent, and a picc line in her head. Eight days later, we had our baby girl at home. She has done nothing but improve since. She did have to be followed by an ortho for a while due to a hip click. She came through that easy enough. She is now almost 11 months old and thriving!
Madison,
You will always be mommy's little mothers day present! I just wish you would have stayed in a little longer. I hated that you had to go thru so much in the first hours of your life, but baby God has a plan and in his time everything comes out!
Mommy and Daddy Love you so much baby girl!
