Well hey! It's Wednesday. After work yesterday I went over to the apartment b/c mom wanted me to go look at some houses with her...so I was all about it. Well, of course I get there and she throws up every excuse. "It's raining"...so as soon as it stopped raining I was like "ok lets go" and then shes like "I dont want to get out in the mud walking around the yards"...so I said "well lets just go drive by some then and get a general idea and then Elaine can take us to see them if we like them" so then she said "well, thats not really in my price range anyways." Ughh!!!! So I went to bed...I have been on a 6:00 nap kick everyday lately. Anyways, I napped and then when I got up I ate supper and then left. I got to Bob's around 8:00 but noone was home. He was out with his fellow fireman Bryan Cox putting up some of my Uncle Harry's political signs. Well the doorbell rang and it was my uncle Tom. So I talked to him for a few minutes to keep him company until Bob & Bryan got back. Then I went into my room and started having my bible time and during that my phone rang. It was Pam calling me to tell me that Paula was at the hospital dilated to 5 cm! I was SO excited. It was funny b/c Paula had just called me earlier yesterday telling me that she had went to the hospital earlier having bad contractions like 3-5 minutes apart but they sent her home b/c she was still only at 2 cm. She was soo disappointed that they sent her home...little did she know she would be there later that night. So anyways, Pam gave me her room # and I called it and Alan answered. He said that she couldnt talk b/c she was having a contraction and trying to answer questions but that he'd have her call me. SO...I impatiently waited haha. About 30 minutes later she called me and said she had just gotten her epidural (I dunno how to spell that). By this time it was 9:00 so I left and went to Fort Sanders. Bad memories of that place, but oh well. ANyways, I sat out in the waiting room with Pam, Paulas Aunt MarySue and her husband, and Alans parents for about 10 minutes and then I went back to see Paula. She looked comfortbale. She was like "I feel goooood" hahahaha. I stayed back in her delivery room with her for about 45 minutes. At this point she was at 7 cm. But I was soo tired there was no way I could wait until the baby was born and then wait all that time to see it and then get up and function correctly at work today so I left but I told her to have her mom call me as soon as she was born and that I would come over directly after work today. Our guess was that Allison would be born around the 1 am hour. Well...we were right on the money! I went to bed around 12:30 am and then I got a phone call from Pam at 2:45 am saying that Allison was born today at 1:02 am I think. haha. How cool. I am so excited to meet her. Allison Leslie Conley is her name and Pam said she was only 6 lbs and I forget how many oz. SO Im very excited about going to meet Allison after work today!!!!! Congratulations Paula & Alan!! And also Grandma Pam!!! I know Paulas dad would have loved to have been here and Im sure hes looking down on them from Heaven and loving his grandchild. Well- thats about all I have to write about today! Bye!!
