Esther Dorothy Hinds - 5/22/2007

Greetings, in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ.

God has blessed us with a beautiful, healthy and just wonderful little baby girl.

Esther Dorothy Hinds was born on Tuesday, May 22nd at Rochester General Hospital (that's not too close to Manitou Rd, by the way - it was a fun drive!)
Sarah started having some "pains" about midnight, and at 12:30 she actually started complaining about them hurting. She wasn't sure if they were contractions or not though. Finally we got her settled down and timed the pains, and they lasted for about a minute with a 30 second break in between. So, we went to the hospital!


After getting to the hospital, they got her a room and the Dr. on duty told her she was 7 cm. Sarah immediately asked for an epidural, and the Dr. wasn't sure because she was so far along. He checked with the Dr. from Sarah's office, and they allowed it to happen. We got to the hospital somewhere around 1:30. The epidural was finished at 2:15, and 15 minutes later at 2:30 in the morning, Esther was born!

Sarah is doing real well now - much better than when she was pregnant.

Esther was our biggest baby so far: 9 lbs. 4 oz. measuring 21 inches long. Not too much hair, but there is some. She is just simply adorable. God is good!
