It is National Adoption Month and I am finally sharing Ashlyn's birth story.
Her doctor and nurse were super casual about her pushing. They were having a conversation and would tell her to push and at one point L and I both were kind of like um should she push? Ashlyn was sunny side up so the doctor had to turn her and finally L was able to push her head out, the doctor turned her again (I swear I thought he was going to break her neck) so we could see her chubby little face and that moment I will never forget. I remember crying saying she is so cute. Those cheeks still kill me! After that I got to cut her umbilical cord. It's not as easy as it looks!
After we got her in the car and left I still couldn't believe she was ours. This perfect little person, this person who is loved by so many was our baby girl.
