Lindy Joy Boston weighing in at a burning 7lbs 15oz came Sunday night at 10:57pm. The birth was AMAZING and everything I had prayed for (minus the dramatic ending but more on that later). Unlike Christian’s birth, my contractions came nice and regular. They didn’t have to use any drugs and it was pretty much a textbook natural birth.
Dustin was an incredible labor coach and even laughed when I hit him in the head with a pillow and yelled “You helped put her in here, now help me pull her out!!”. I actually yelled a ton of things, one of my personal favorites being: “Lindy this is your mother! Come out right now!”.
Thankfully I had the world’s best midwife and hospital nurse in my room for the whole thing. They were so encouraging. When I was turned around backwards on the bed growling and delivering like a dog (can’t wait for the birth story eh?) they were discussing with each other how they wished more labors were like this. LIke this? Really? All right then, lets keep on growling!
I am so so so thankful to be done being pregnant and snuggling Lindy’s warm, soft little head right now. Well, not right now, but you know what I mean. I was expecting to have to suffer for another 3 weeks of being pregnant, but God gave me mercy and had her come early since she was perfectly formed 
She’s a perfect baby and has these huge fat cheeks that I kiss all day. Maddie and Christian are both pretty smitten too. I wish I could capture the expressions on their faces when they see her. They literally glow and walk magnatized towards her.
As far as adjusting…oh my gosh it’s been amazing! Going from two kids to three hasn’t been tough at all. Like my pediatrician says “Chaos + Chaos = Chaos”. It also really helps that I have Dustin by my side for two weeks (!), so we’re able to figure things out together and give all of the kids plenty of attention.
As soon as I get pics I”ll post
