The Birth of Alexandrea Lee Wright

Hey, All! I know! Two posts in ONE day? Must mean Alex is napping well! Here are the pictures that Mom promised from Alex's Birth. There were TONS of pictures, and Mom tried to pick out some of the best ones. They tell the story of Alex's delivery, and we hope you enjoy them! It was pure luck that Shannon was able to make it in time to catch so many great pictures.
Mom's nurse that was the first to assess her in triage:

Mom pushed for a total of 8 minutes. EIGHT minutes.

This is when they started to sense that she was having difficulty breathing:

We are so grateful that her stay in the NICU was short, and that the nurses and doctor's that cared for her did such a great job making her stay so short:

And that was it! Mom and Dad were at the hospital just shy of 2 hours before Alex was born. As Mom mentioned, Shannon made it just in time. 10 minutes later, and she would have missed it all.
