Introducing Our Newest Addition...

She is here!


Our little girl arrived into the world on Friday, March 25, 2011 at 11:34 a.m. She is healthy, adorable and perfect in every way.


All 7lbs 9 oz and 21 inches of her...almost 2 lbs less than the little man! But, I probably would have been on track with another 9 pounder had she not come almost 2 weeks early.


I went to my 38 week appointment last Thursday and was already dilated to a 4 and having some mild contractions. Needless to say, they picked up during the evening and we headed to the hospital around 1 a.m. on Friday.


I had to have a c-section with the little man, but thankfully everything worked out with her and I had a successful vbac this time. Now we are at home, trying to get settled into a family of four (six if you count the dogs), and are just trying to get through each day.


We are so very thankful for our newest addition!


I'll get back to my regular posts soon...I promise!

    Congratulations! She is ADORABLE and looks like the spitting image of your little man. (I've always thought he was just too cute for words...)

    I'm interested in any other details you would like to share, I'm very curious to know what's coming my way in September!
