I'm an aunt! sorta...

After 18 hours of labor, no epidural and pain that I cannot even imagine, my cousin Lindsey gave birth to her first baby, Anthony Michael, at 3:01 a.m. this morning.  I am so happy for her and Mike and can't even explain how proud of her I am for doing that naturally.  It hurts just thinking about it.

For those of you who aren't familiar with the chronicles of Lindsey and Kelly, let me recap.  We are cousins, but more like sisters and I would spend every summer with Linds and the rest of the family in Ohio and on Norris Lake, Tennessee.  I was Lindsey's Maid of Honor and she will be mine.  We have more inside jokes than I can even list and we've been through more than I could possibly get into on a blog.  Not only do we have a song, but we have a poem.  Yeah, a poem. 

So in honor of Linds' amazing birthing accomplishment, here's a photo montage of our adventures:

When Linds came to visit Portland in 2010
Vegas in 2009
New Years 2007/2008!
Linds' wedding, 2007
Mexico 2006!
I wish we didn't live a gazillion miles away, but we still love each other!  fififififififi.  (that's one of our jokes).
