Addison Faith Ochoa made her entrance into this world 9/14/14.  She waited 40 weeks and 2 days to make her appearance, so we were very ready to meet her!
I was pretty sure she was going to come on Saturday night, but my contractions slowed down once I crawled into bed.  I woke up Sunday morning feeling pretty good, but slightly angry I was still pregnant!  Uncle Jason and Aunt Steffany decided to head back to Bozeman, since it looked like baby doll was going to stay in for awhile.  After they left, I decided to take a nap.  I woke up from nap with painful contractions, but nothing consistent.  I was becoming very uncomfortable, very fast, so Tim decided it was time to head to the hospital.  Tim was pretty excited since he knew he would be able to watch the Seahawks game on the tv at the hospital...
We showed up at the hospital around 4:00 pm.  At that time, I was dilated to an 8 already, so it was a rush to get an epidural in.  Mom was able to make it to the hospital, thanks to our dear neighbor Danielle who took the kids at the spur of the moment.  Tim wanted to deliver baby doll, and everything lined up perfect for him to do so.  After about 19 minutes of pushing, our dear daughter was welcomed into our arms.
Tim placed her right on my chest, where I got to snuggle her for a good hour.  She started nursing right away, and we just enjoyed checking out our new addition.  
Mom brought the kids up to the hospital when the baby was about 2 hours old.  Carter was afraid to hold her, but Kinley jumped right in there!  It was so sweet watching them interact with their new baby sister!
Showing up at the hospital, we were still slightly undecided about the name of our baby doll.  So we slept on it the first night, and decided in the morning what her final name would be.  Addison has always been at the top of our list, and it seemed to fit her perfectly after we spent some time with her.  Faith was a last minute decision, and one that I have fallen so in love with.  Living this life with 3 kids requires a lot of Faith, and when I say her name it reminds me that I can do it!
We stayed at the hospital our required 24 hours, and then we were out of there to sleep in our own bed!  Tim had to give a presentation the next morning, so he need to get some good sleep. 
Addison is an amazing addition to our family, and we are so in love with our big bundle of joy!  Thank you for choosing us to be your family Addison, we love you with all our hearts!!
