Moon Unit Zappa Smith

I'm currently laying in a hospital bed, cuddling with a snoozing brand new baby. New Baby Snoopy is here! Ok, but now she has a real name. Moon Unit Zappa Smith. She is 8lbs 11oz and 20in of pure adorableness. 

So who wants the "ITS GO TIME!" story!? :)

Around 7:30 on Thursday night I was getting Awesome and Christmas into bed as usual. Except neither of then would fall asleep. It got to about 8:15ish and I felt a contraction that was a little uncomfortable. I went into another room to get my phone, so I could keep track of my contractions. When I picked my phone up.. my water broke. It actually broke! I never had that happen before, and I definitely thought that maybe I just peed myself. I mean, I've been peeing myself a lot lately.. Thanks pregnancy. I called Walter right away "Hey babe. I think my water just broke. Or maybe I peed myself.." I realized that it was definitely not pee. Then I called my mom, who was already planning on coming down the next morning because we had a feeling labor was close by (we were right). Then, I get the kids out of bed, and I'm trying to tell a 4 year old and a 2 1/2 year old that mommy's water broke and new baby is coming soon. 

Some quotes from Awesome:

"We can just fix the water. How did it break?"

"Are you going to pee New Baby out right now!?"

"I'm still happy."

"So. Your water broke..." 

"Daddy, mommy's water broke!" 

Anyway.. I get my bag, and get a few things together and Walter gets home. It's go time! He tells me that he ordered pizza and we're going to swing by and grab it on our way to the hospital. I love that man. I love him so much. We stop to get the pizza and it's not ready.. So obviously we go get gas, and then come back for the pizza. Who wants to go into labor hungry!? It's hard work! We get to the ER, and I'm wheeled in, eating my pizza. We get checked in, blah blah blah.. And the kids are getting wild, running all over the place. Understandably so, it was late, they were tired, and a little hospital room isn't really a fun space for them. So our amazing friend Krys Belc was all "dude, bring them here!"  She saved the day! Daddy dropped the kids off, got back to the hospital, and then it was really go time. 12:35am we got to meet Moon! Everything went well and as planned. Drug free, and just totally great! My mom, little sister, little brother and his girlfriend all came to visit us minutes after Moon arrived. :) Awesome and Christmas are now spending a few days with my parents. Mommy and daddy are missing them like crazyyyy. I can't wait to be home, get settled, and get into our new groove. 

I love this. This is what I was made for.

Love!
