Sienna Mae Hughes

6 lbs 11oz, 20 in.

Too much skin? Sorry.

Family pictures are getting increasingly harder to take.






Once the doctor started me on Pitossin, Sienna was eager to get here.
I was in labor for less than 2 hours and she was in my arms. Luckily the epidural kicked in before I got to the very difficult part. I kept telling the nurses "It really feels like I'm crowning." They must have been thinking, okay crazy lady stop telling us how to do our job, because they didn't even look. When the nurse went to put in a catheter she finally believed me because she found a baby's head. The doctor entered the room and said "Okay, cough once and she'll be delivered." All and all the induction turned out to be quite the ideal delivery. Me and my prejudices.

Congratulations Carrie! Our little girls are three days apart. How fun. Glad the labor went well (or better than you'd expected) and that you are both healthy. Look forward to keeping tabs on Sienna in the coming weeks and months!

She is so beautiful. I am glad that everything went well for both of you. Sage looks just like River in the picture of the three kids. Congrats and lots of hugs and kisses from us :)

Well done Care-bear! Sienna looks so sweet with her round little face. I remember holding Avery as a newborn and thinking how beautiful she was. I can't believe how much Sage is looking like Shane, especially with that platinum blonde hair. Cute kids and cute mama. Wish I could be there to help babysit and hold the little one. Congrats and enjoy! We sure miss you guys!
