Olivia Paige Canyon was born 9/18/09...right on time! We were a little surprised when my contractions started Thursday night. Earlier that week I had gone to the doctor and there was still nothing happening. My doctor told me he was going to enduce me the following weekend so she would be born on the 26th. Luckily though Olivia was ready to come on her own. The whole labor thing went great! I had contractions all night Thursday and then in the morning around 10 we went to the hospital. I really didn't want to get sent home so we waited and called my doctor in the morning to see what he thought. After telling the nurse my symptoms she told us she thought it was time to head to the hospital. Everything went so smooth. The nurses at Thunderbird were amazing.. I loved them all. They really made the whole process so easy and comfortable for the both of us.
I just wanted to say thank you so much to everyone who came to visit or sent messages to us. It made us both feel so loved and the support was great. Having good family and friends makes all the difference.
So now we are home and getting use to each other and this new routine. But honestly it as been so easy so far. Its crazy to think that we are parents but at the same time it just seems so natural. Jon is an amazing dad and is so in love. The feeling is mutual from Olivia too. She loves to just stare at him and turns her head whenever she hears his voice. So things are good. Things are great actually. I am so happy and so blessed to have a perfect little girl and the best husband ever.
