Where did you deliver?
Kate: A hospital in Cincinnati

New baby: I keep teasing Justin we won't make it in time. :)
Drugs?

C-section?
No.
Who delivered?

I was in labor with you for about 24 hours. You woke me up about 2:00 in the morning and I thought I'd for sure have a baby that day, but it was a looooooooong day and you didn't come until the next morning. Then your sister surprised me. Labor started about 3:30 in the afternoon and she arrived 4 hours later at 7:30.
I'm impressed about the no medication part! Wow :)
Good luck with new baby!! Thanks for joining in on the meme.
