Memorable MondayAngela's Birth


Angela Rae Pace
Feb. 29, 2000
8 lbs. 2 oz
20 inches
Angela was born 2 days late.  When I heard that Debbie had Austin, I was really sad.  I wanted to have my baby.  The night before Angela was born, I has visiting teachers over.  They were asking me how I was doing and call them when I had my baby.  I didn't know if I was going to have a boy or a girl.  I was getting anxious to find out what sex my baby was.   Later that night, I felt my water broke.  I knew that we needed to head to the hospital.  When we arrived, I was escorted to a room and we got started on an IV.  Soon, I was able to get my epidural.  It worked well at first, but after awhile I felt some pressure and asked fror some more medicine.  It was shortly after that when Angela came into the world.  She was born on Leap Day. Jim and my doctor joked about having my baby on Lesp Day and it happened.  What are the odds??   I called my visiting teachers less than 24 hours after their visit.  I was so excited that I had another girl.  It was worth waiting to find out that she was a girl. I gave her the middle name Rae after my dad and Jim's grandpa - Ray.  I was a little nervous about that middle name, but it grew on me at the hospital.  Angela was my biggest baby, probably because she was the only one that came after her due date.
