We would like to welcome Elise Noelle Erwin into the world. Elise was born, November 18, 2007 at 4:35 p.m. She weighs 7lbs., 1 oz., and is 21 inches long. Sized just right!
The day started like every other, except Erin knew something felt slightly different. There were some strange feelings below, consistent, but not strong. We took Sam and Abby for a 1.5 mile walk, and then Erin sent me to the IU basketball game (I offered to stay, but she insisted). When I arrived home, the games had begun. Within an hour, we were on our way to the hospital due to the ever increasing contractions. When we arrived at the hospital, we signed in at 3:45, and Erin was 10 cm. dialated. We got into the room, Erin put on her gown, and Elise was born about 35 minutes later. I was still in shock about 3 hours later. Due to her dramatic entrance, Elise had to be on Oxygen for a few hours, but now she is healthy and beautiful! The Grandparents are all here and for now, everything seems right in our world. Have a look!!!
