#2 arrives

It's a girl! Today the Herriman family grew by 2 more feet. I became a BIG brother to a sweet baby sister, Henley Jo! Let me break the entire day down for you. Mom went to her doctor's appointment on the 20th of May and she had began to progress further along. The doc wanted to see her again on Monday morning to check her and discuss options. Monday morning arrives and mom is moving right along again. She wanted a certain doctor, Ward Olhausen, to deliver #2. He was on call for the next 2 night, so the decision was made to schedule an induction for later that evening, the 23rd. Mom went about her day at school, which was her last day to spend with her class for the year. As mom came home to pack and gather things her water broke! Mom and dad quickly shuffled things in the car and were off to the hospital. Mom was excited to have the experience of "going on her own", since the induction medicine made her so sick last time. It was a pretty mild evening with off and on contractions. At midnight mom received her epidural and then progressed even more and by 3:00 a.m. it was time for the doctor to come in. Mom pushed for about 30 minutes and baby Henley arrived at 4:07 a.m. She was 9.6 and 19 1/2 inches. We are so blessed to have a sweet baby girl join on family!
It's time!
