April 17, 2009 at 5:47 our little Monkey was born. Her birth was such an amazing experience. Moose was an emergency c-section. But our little Monkey was a V-BAC (for those not savvy, that means vaginal birth after cesarean). That's not easy to do as many hospitals are not supportive of them because of risks to the hospital (being sued etc. when things go wrong.) Anyhow, we were amazingly fortunate to be in a city (one of only about 4 in our state) that is supportive of VBAC. My doctor was also amazingly supportive as well.
So, little Monkey was our first experience with a "normal" delivery. It was such an awesome experience. When she was born, she didn't cry. She just laid there, until the nurses eventually got her squealing. She was so extremely peaceful. It was such a great experience.
Now our little babe is jogging around, she's attempting to communicate. (her favorite way is the point and grunt, at the moment.) Her and Moose get along pretty awesome 99% of the time. I couldn't have asked for a better addition to our family. I love this little girl and look forward to every day with her. It has been a phenomenal year, and I can't wait to see what the next one brings.
Thank you Monkey. You are wonderful! I'm so glad you joined our family. You made it complete.
