Well, our little girl arrived late as usual! I was induced at 42 weeks and was able to have a mostly unmedicated birth (had to have pitocin, but made it without an epidural! I know, I'm a superstar :) at least I felt like one) ! She was born at 9 lbs and 3 oz and has been such a joy! She is a good sleeper and eater and is growing really well. All of her sisters absolutely LOVE her! Ginny likes to carry her around and talk with her to see if she can elicit a smile. Audrey loves to be close to her and around her. Lily loves to hug and kiss her and Sydney tries really hard to take care of her (not-so-gently giving her a paci). She is already able to roll over (she started that at 2 months old). She gets really excited when it's time to eat and loves to be bundled up to sleep. She is particular about who holds her and can always tell when Mommy or Daddy isn't holding her. We've taken her to the pool a few times and she seems really calm in the water. She LOVES her bath time and will kick and kick to her hearts content. She does wait until the waters done pouring to have her fun, though! She calms down really easily when I talk softly with her; I think she knows we will do our best to help her. I feel so grateful to have her as part of our eternal family! Here are a few pictures of her first three months....enjoy!
