AND THE EMMY GOES TO....(long entry)

THE CORWIN FAMILY!

(Well, kind of)

Introducing my little sister.

Emmie Kiyoko Corwin

Born Thursday, September 15th 2011 9:17pm

9 pounds even, 21 inches long even

Maybe I should rewind and explain when this all happened...

This is my mama with my sister still in her belly.  Her legs look broken because she was having a contraction and was writhing in pain at the time.  She told Daddy no pictures, but you can see how well he listened.  Mama called my daddy and told him that she thought he should come home from work, and before she knew it, he was home!  He sped down the freeway to the hospital and Mama was checked in at around 1:00pm, where she was 2cm dilated.  When checked again at 4:00pm she was 4.5cm dilated and they gave her some drugs and broke her water.  At 8:35pm, nurses made her push about 4 or so times, and then the doctor came in, she pushed again, and out came my sister at 9:17pm!  (There are some really gross pictures that Mama said we can't show)



Here she is, but at this point she didn't have a name.  Daddy didn't give her a name until the next day.  So, she was just "Baby Girl" for awhile.

This is Emmie on her ride home.

Daddy let me see her, I wasn't sure about her at first.  She was really loud and made a funny bark that I have never heard before!  It made me nervous.  But, I am slowly getting used to it.

My life has changed A LOT.

But it's OK.  I am a pretty good big sister if I do say so myself.

All because of this funny looking puppy that Mama brought home, my house has turned upside down.

Daddy is home for about a week while Mama recovers.  She is a bit damaged from squeezing a 9lb watermelon out of her.  Good thing she has me and Daddy to take care of her.

I'll keep you updated on the craziness that is my house!
