She is finally here!

Lola Kathryn Eastman was born at 3:45 pm on Monday July 26th. She weighed 9lbs 8oz, 20.5 inches long. Tons and tons of hair!
We went to the hospital at 7:45 Monday morning to be induced. I was still only dilated to a 1, so they started me on pitocin to get things moving. I had a really great nurse, but her shift ended right before Lola came out. Chad tried to get some rest while I labored, he had a pretty bad cold. I decided to get an epidural before they broke my water. Dr. Johnson broke my water at 12:30. Around 3 I knew she was ready. The nurse checked me and told me not to move if I wanted Dr. Johnson to deliver my baby, she was right there. Dr. Johnson rushed in about 15 minutes later, I pushed 6 times and my big girl was here. I had my Mom and Cadie stay in the room for the delivery. Chad also filmed the birth from the trenches. It was pretty cool to see it.
