Baby Ailbe Elaine was born Friday November 5, 2010 at 759am. Johnathan and I woke up very early in the morning. We couldn't sleep from a mixture of our nerves and excitement. We arrived at the hospital at 545 to check in. Once we checked in we headed up to L&D. It was very exciting and at the same time very scary. We were both very quiet as the nurses told us to head to room 1. Once in the labor room my sis Elaine walked in and helped lighten the mood with her laughter. Johnathan, Elaine and I did a lot of laughing during that time. It was good to relax a little. The doctors came in and explained what would happen with my Csection and explained when they would start. I was taken into surgery at 730 to deliver baby Ailbe and by 759 she was born. Ailbe Elaine Murphy was born 9lbs 21inches (she was measured one week later at 23 so we were pretty certain they didn't stretch her out to measure her in the hospital lol). She is such a precious gem. One thing I really remember from delivery was when they pulled her out how excited her daddy looked and how happy we both felt. Auntie E cut the umbilical cord because Daddy is too squeamish lol. It was a great day! All grandparents and Auntie E and Uncle Jeremy were present.
