Little miss Victoria Elizabeth shocked us all and came while daddy was away. He left on Wednesday and was going to be back on Friday. Thursday morning I felt "different." I called him, but told him to continue flying cause I "knew" they would just send me home again from the hospital. When I arrived I was 3 cm. They wanted to keep me an hr to see how I progressed. Spoke with Eric, he was pushing back leaving for MDW from LGA.An hour later, 6 cm. HOLY COW!!! I'm a keeper. I called dispatch, and they notified Eric, I have the pic, I'll try to attach it from Acars, Got to a room, had an epi put in, and everything happened so fast. My girlfriends arrived, champagne and oj flowing throughout the room, lol, laughing and joking going on. We were the talk of L & delivery, lol. My doctor thought it was so cool that my friends were there to help out since Eric couldn't get there in time. We were the ya ya sisters! lol I rememebr at one point my doc and one of the nurses discovered that they were related and I had to interrupt them from their chitter chatter so that I could push.
Victoria Elizabeth was born Thursday, November 1st@ 9:10PM
7 pounds, 4 oz 20 1/2 inches.
Eric ended up driving from Chicago and got in at 2 AM!
I'll post the pic in a bit!

Oh, Brenda! Congrats! Little stinker, she's definately going to keep the two of you on your toes huh? Definately on her own schedule. Take good care of yourself and her (of course) and enjoy your babymoon.
