Welcome Little One

She wasn't early, she wasn't late, she was right on time. Our due date was June 27th, and I went into labor at 8pm on June 27th. In my last post I talked about how different my pregnancies were - the labors were complete opposites as well. My water broke at home with Mason, and didn't break until we were at the hospital and I was 7 cm dilated with Mya. The contractions with Mya were frequent and fierce, and slow and spaced out with Mason. Finally, and thankfully, labor with Mya lasted only 4 hours, while it lasted 12 with Mason. About the only things that were similar were the epidural and the joy we felt when she arrived.

Mya Carolyn Mattens, born June 28, 2011 at 12:17 am. She checked in at 7 lbs 2 oz and 20 inches long. A full head of brown hair and the requesite steel blue eyes. She actually looks just like Mason when he was born. Can you tell who's who?
















Mason is the top picture, Mya is the bottom. Adam and I feel so blessed to have these little sweeties.
