I'm a MOM!!!!

EEK! I can't believe we're actually parents of 3 beautiful baby girls right now! This is all so surreal but so exciting and everything has just happened so fast. The girls are doing great and didn't act up at all last night so that was good. Addison is now off of the respirator and is just getting help breathing with a C-PAP like Emily and Hailey now too. They are doing good considering how early they were born! They are too cute. I just want to hold them so bad! We can touch them through their little incubator thingys but that's all so far.
I'm feeling good! Just way tired since I didn't sleep on Tuesday night with the 2-4 minute contractions all night long. They were trying to stop the contractions but they weren't working and these girls just wanted out! So....yesterday morning, the contractions were getting worse and worse and so the Dr. came in, checked my cervix, and saw that I was FULLY dialated! eek! so it was GO TIME! I started bawling, everything went SO quickly. Thankfully my mother in law and future sister in law were in the room as all of the crazy commotion began because we had to move QUICKLY or I would have to have them naturally! I called Ryan at work and yea, he got here very fast. I can't even tell you how crazy everything was! There were like 25 people in the OR and it was nuts. The girls came out making little cries and were just too cute. They look like normal babies, just smaller! Now they have preemie diapers on but they're so big on them!
Anyways - so THANK YOU so much for your prayers. We can TOTALLY feel them as the girls are the best miracles ever and we can truly feel more than blessed. This whole experience is unbelievable. We'll keep you updated as much as we can on here and we'll try to get some pics up as soon as possible. The Drs. think we can expect the girls to come home with us in 4 -6 weeks and probably before Thanksgiving since they came out doing so well. Now it's just getting them to get big! :)
bye for now!
Mama Shelly!!! :)
