One year ago today...

It was Sunday April 4th , Easter Morning!

I remember I had some really strange dream and it involved something wrong with my back. I woke up at 7:00am and my back was KILLING me. It was a pain I had not felt before. I was like oh shit! I tried to close my eyes and go back to sleep. It didn't work. I turned on the TV and starting watching a cartoon that was on called Willa's Wild Life. This little girl lives in this amazing mod house and has a yard full of wild animals. Awesome! For a split second I was like that would be a cool name, Willa. Then I remember our last name and snapped back to reality.

I woke Matt up and told him that my back was killing me. He had remembered from our class at the hospital that was one of the signs of labor. I think his face turned white. I decided to take a shower to see if that would help. It didn't so then I called the Dr's office and had the Dr. on call paged.
He said it couldn't hurt to go in and get checked out. Panic set in. I remember trembling as I was calling my mom to tell her Happy Easter! We are headed to the hospital!!! I remember trying to get a hold of Heidi desperately and her not answering. She had been my lifeline through the whole pregnancy and it was freaking me out that I couldn't get a hold of her. Not that she could have done anything, haha.

By 8am we were in the car headed to the hospital, a short 5 mins away. It was another beautiful day out. Warm & Sunny. I remember trying really hard to remember every detail but from there it gets blurry...
