Family of Four

It's official! We are now a family of 4! Cadence Marie arrived Monday, June 18th in a timely manner at 12:21pm. I didn't even skip a meal. I ate breakfast at home that morning and had lunch shortly after she arrived. She weighed 7lbs 7oz. and was 19 1/2 in. long.

I thought I had felt the worst pain known to main when I had Delaney. The 45 min. from the time they broke my water until I got my epidural was excruciating, but it was nothing compared to the pain I felt when I had to hold Cadence in for 15 min. waiting for the Dr. to arrive. Once she got there, I had pushed her out in just one contraction!

She's just as beautiful as Delaney and looks just like her. I hope to have pictures up on our family website soon (http://www.palitang.net), but I'm sure everyone knows my hands are pretty full and sleep takes priority over uploading pictures.

We're all adjusting pretty well so far, but I just know that it's going to get harder. I want to thank everyone who was praying for us and ask for your continued prayers that the adjustment continues down this smooth path. Thank you and good night ;)
