AW: Got more pics of Jake's Birthday! :)
Thank god for best friends who are camera happy!! She got a bunch of great pictures and I stole them from her lol. 
I'm so glad she got the ones she did... such wonderful memories, especially considering I had no idea what was going on outside my little bubble. lol. I just wanted to share some of them with you ladies.
Me and my bestie Allie (yes we have the same name lol) when I was in the earlier stages of labor.
In the late stages of labor with hubby, mom, and sisters. (The clock on the wall says 9:05pm... two hours and ten minutes to go!)
Sisters in the hallway all excited because they heard Jake's first cry!
My mom and sisters crying outside my room after hearing the cry!
Here he is all fresh and new!
New Mommy (looking like hell) and Daddy
Proud Daddy holding monkey for the first time.
The chaos that was my labor and delivery room after he was born. This isn't even everyone! There was about five other people in the room!!
He didn't like his first wash!!
Feelin' good!!

Wow - what a crowd! I too wanted it to be just Rich and I. For most of the day it was.....
Those are some great pictures though. It's nice to have since the process can be kind of a blur to Mommy and Daddy!
This was me too! Those are great pics, what a great friend.

Very sweet moments. And you look ah-mazing for just pushing out a babeh.
I hope I remember to put someone in charge of my camera and my make-up bag so I look presentable for all labor pics.
