She's here!

August 17, at 4:27pm Molly Jo Louise Phillips was born!  8 lbs 6 oz, 20 inches long!  She has turned my world upside down.  I have never been more happy, emotional, exhausted, ........ everything.... ever!  She is in the NICU for a few more days because her healthy pancreas was creating more insulin than needed after she was born because it was use to providing that much when I was carrying her.  She's overly healthy and that's, essentially, why she's in there.  She's amazing.  I have never felt a love like this, it's a bit overwhelming.

Ray and I have never been more smitten in our lives.  We cannot wait to bring her home.

It's go time.


Tomorrow is the day that we are inducing labor.  Her lung maturity was checked today and she exceeded the standard.  I cannot wait to meet her.  I am so nervous and anxious.  This is like, the biggest present ever.  She may be born on my mother's birthday.  Excitement is an understatement.  Ugh.
