All about Nora Kate
This time last year was when it all began. The back labor started, whatever that was..at the time I had no clue I just thought I had hurt my back- wrong! I put up with it for three hours & then it hit me-- I'm in labor!! My father in law came and got Owen and Bradley & I raced an hour away to the hospital. That was the longest ride to Huntsville ever It was just like the movies- I thought NK was going to be born in the car. We pulled up at hospital & both of us jumped out and by jumped out I mean Bradley left car unlocked, cranked and parked right in front of hospital. We busted through the doors and after having contractions thst would knock me down to the concrete, one door being locked, having to ask a security guard carrying a box of doughnuts where to go we finally got to the nurses desk where I told the nurses Nora Kate was coming- after being hooked up to monitors four minutes at 3:06 a.m Nora Kate was born--7lbs 12oz 19 inches long. She had red hair and blue eyes. She was perfect! We couldn't believe she was here! I made Bradley call and tell everyone since it happened so fast none of our family had made it to hospital yet. My room was packed with about five nurses and two doctors- Bradley called my mom who was on her way to the hospital, Bradley told her about NK being born and mom didn't believe him. They always joke around with each other. It was so funny because the nurses and doctors could hear my mom on the phone telling Bradley " If your lying to me I'm going to kick your..." all we could do was laugh. It all happened so fast that when it was all done I asked the nurses if we could have a few mins alone just Bradley, Nora Kate & I. After about thirty minutes we let the family come meet NK. Around lunch time Owen finally made it to the hospital to meet his baby sister. He was shy at first but he loved her. He didn't get to hold her that day because she had Jaundice and had to stay under the light the first 24 hours of her life.
Fast forward to today- almost a whole year later & she is just as perfect as she was then. We couldn't love her any more if we wanted to. She is the perfect addition to our family and I am forever grateful that God chose me as her mama.
Happy Birthday NK!!
