Nevaeh Marie Elliott 6-6-09

She is here! I was home in TC to spend some time with Skyy before she leaves to go with her Mom for the summer. I choose a good weekend to be there as I was able to witness the birth of my niece Nevaeh Marie. It was absolutely amazing! Alyssa was not due until the 24th but got preeclampsia so they had to induce her. On Friday night they admitted her and gave her pitocin to get the process started. On Saturday morning at 8 they broke her water. Shaun, Skyy and I were at Target buying the stroller/car seat when I got the call to head to the hospital. I got there and Alyssa had just gotten the epidural so she was feeling pretty good. They wanted her to get some rest before she had to start pushing so I went to the waiting room. I was there with her Mom, sister and Step Dad. Eventually Shaun and Skyy showed up. My brother came in and said that she was starting to push so we headed to her room. Alyssa was so week but she did an amazing job and at 4:31 baby Nevaeh entered the world. I was crying worse than the baby and it was just a wonderful event. I am so happy that Alyssa wanted to share the birth with me and I look forward to the relationship that I will have with this beautiful baby. I can't wait to go home during Cherry Festival to spend more time with her. :) Here are some of the many many shots I got.
