Its a girl!

Allie Mae arrived Sunday May 24th (10 days past her due date) at 3:33pm. She was 8lbs 2oz and 21 inches long. Things didn't go according to plan. After fast and relatively easy first and second stages I spent a long time pushing and she wouldn't descend. I transferred from the birth center to the hospital and ended up deciding that a cesarean was the best option. The recovery has been a challenge, but every day I'm feeling better. Allie is super cute and Selena loves being a big sister.

I'll post a novel length birth story when I get a chance.
