Ashley and Anthony's baby arrival!! | Labor and Delivery Pictures

I never would have thought that 3 years ago I was meeting one of my best friends. I am so blessed to have been a part of such an amazing experience with one of the most beautiful families I know! Ashley and Anthony were blessed with their fourth child...a BOY! Anthony Edward III. was born! 

They have yet determined what his nick name would be, since his daddy is Anthony and his grandfather is Tony. 

I voted for Trey, but not sure if that will stick! haha... 

The night started out by Ashley texting me at 6pm on Wednesday, April 3rd telling me that she is on the way to the hospital, but doesn't think it's anything too serious yet.  I just told her to keep me posted so I can make sure I get out there on time.. So then around 9pm, she texted me and said she is getting her epidural soon!! I got to the hospital shortly before 11pm and things started to look like they were progressing really good! Then it was midnight and then it was 2am and still no little baby. haha.. Ashley was so sweet and was so concerned about me not getting any rest that she asked me  if i wanted to lay down in the hospital chair/pullout bed to get some rest until it was time. So I did for a short time, because then it quickly became 3am, and I heard a soft whisper saying 

"Ellie, it's time.".... YAY!! I was so excited, I hopped out of the chair and grabbed my camera! I instantly started to take pictures and remember seeing Anthony turning around quickly asking for me to take a picture of the time, so they can always remember the timing of everything! That was at 3:24am. Anthony Edward III was born at 3:27am!!!
