Erin's POV: I still can't believe we finally got to meet our daughter she was four days past her due date, but she was so worth it. Right now I am waking up from a nice sleep and all of sudden I don't feel jay beside me or feel Camryn so I start to panic but once I look over at the window and I see jay holding our daughter while he talks to her so I just listen to what he says to her
J= hey baby girl I'm your daddy and you are one lucky lady because you have the best mommy ever she has the best hear of anyone I know she will love you no matter what you do. I hope you learn how special you are. You made me and your mommy so much stronger you gave us a purpose in life. On emote thing about your mommy you should know is that she is a totally badass
E= hey don't say that word around her
J= oh no mommy caught us already
E= oh yes I did
J= I though you were asleep I hope we didn't wake you
E= I was asleep and you didn't wake me I only woke up beside I didn't feel you beside me anymore
J= sorry about that but little miss Camryn was getting fussy and once I picked her up she wasn't anymore and I wanted you to sleep a little bit longer since you had a long night
E= oh how sweet so what time is it anyways
J=It's almost five in the morning
E= wow she must have sleep so good to not wake up us until now
J= yeah it seems like we got a good sleeper on our hands already
E= yes we do how about try and catch a few more hours before our friendship family come and meet our daughter
J= that's a great idea so do you want her to lay in her bassinet or lay with us
E= I wanted her with us always
J= all right let's get some sleep good night babe
E= good night babe
We end up falling asleep for a couple of hours and soon I wake up to Camryn crying like she is hungry but then I was trying to move and I was hurting a little also I had jay kind of laying on me but then all of sudden will walks in
WH= oh sorry if I woke you up
E= no it's fine I think it's time to eat anyways beside you made great timing by coming in
WH= oh I Did

Will ends up staying with us for about an hour before his shift starts. Then we are left alone again for about two more hours until everyone starts to show up
E= ( to hank ) I though you would have showed up before anyone else
AO= oh he try to believe me
HV= I did but then everyone keep asking about you guys and then they tagged along in the
end
J= let me guess Adam bugged you the most about us
HV= oh yea he is like a child
AR= hey I do not act like a child

AD= you didn't need to show us that we knew that and also that you are the most badass in the whole unit
E= aww thanks guys you are so sweet
Everyone passes the baby around where they each got to hold her after about two hours they all leave us alone and we take a family nap together again
Jay's POV; I still can't believe we finally got to meet our daughter last night and I am still in aw Of erin giving birth without any pain meds she is a true badass right now we are just laying here looking at Camryn amazed at how perfect she is

J= got it so text me what you all need or want and I will be back as soon as possible and hopefully I will smell better bye I love you my girls
E= well we love You too
I leave and head home once I get home I get Erin's text with all the stuff I need to grab once I grab everything I hurry up and jump into the shower once I am done and dress I drive back to med so I can be with my girls. Once I enter the room I see that both of them are still sleeping so I sit down and watch them sleep for a while longer about 45 minutes later Erin stars to wake up
J= hey sleeping beauty
E= hey handsome how long have you been there sitting and staring at me
J= only for about an hour If not less
E= why didn't you wake me when you got back

J= all right enjoy your shower babe
E= I will try I can't wait until I can share the shower with you again
J= same here babe counting down the days
E= oh yeah me too
About five minutes after Erin got into the shower Camryn wakes up so I pick her up and see if she was hungry. But after trying to get her to eat and she refusing to eat I gave up so I jay lay down on the bed with her on my chest all of sudden she was calm again
J= I Guess you just wanted to snuggle with your daddy didn't you are so much like your mommy already she loves to cuddle also
E= oh my god that shower felt so good

E= you are so sweet but it's all right to go a beside I think it's almost time for her to eat and I don't want to be in the car when she is hungry and she starts to scream
J= good point I pick up the speed
About 20 minutes later we arrive home
E= how about we just bring her in and later on you come out and grab everything
J= that isn't a bad plan so do you want to carry her in your arms or bring her up in the car seat
E= I think I will bring her up In my arms
J= all rights let's go
( inside)
E= welcome home Camryn Nicole halstead
J= welcome home baby girl

J= that's because mommy burns all the food she makes
E= Jay Alexander no I don't ( talks to the baby) Camryn don't listen to your daddy so where to next
J= the living room where me and mommy play a lot of scrabble on this couch

J= this is mommy and daddy's bed room where hopefully you don't sleep in much and over there is the bathroom where mommy always makes a mess of

Once we lay her down she falls asleep right away once we knew for sure she was asleep we head out to the living to just relax while she sleeps
J= can you believe we have our daughter in our house right now
E= no it seems so unreal
J= for sure you did a badass Jon giving birth to our daughter babe
