I know this announcement is a little late, but we have been trying to adjust to our newest lifestyle so that doesn't leave too much time for the computer anymore.
Ben has been working a two week shutdown at work and has been working nights. When we found out about the shutdown, my biggest fear was going into labor while he was at work. Well, sure enough, Allegra decided to start making her grand enterance in the early hours of the morning. I called Ben at work about 3 am and told him he needed to come home because my water broke. Marc had been staying at our house off and on while Ben was working just in case we needed to head to the hospital in the middle of the night to be there for the boys. He just happened to be staying that night! Ben came home, and off to the hospital we went.
Mom came to our house later that morning to take care of the boys. Jasper had a baseball scrimmage they went to and they played outside. Once Allegra was born, Ben went home to take a shower, eat and get the boys. He waited until they got to the hospital to tell them if it was a girl or a boy. The nurse brought Allegra into the room after the boys had come and Jasper read the crib card that said she was a girl. They were really excited! They couldn't wait to hold her.
Allegra is the only girl on the Luckritz AND Jacobs side. I have a feeling she is going to be one spoiled little girl! Her big brothers and daddy are going to be so protective of her too. Even the doctor said she wasn't going to have any dates when she's older.
It was a long day, but well worth it! Allegra is just perfect!
