Welcome Baby L

Our sweet little girl was born last Tuesday weighing in at 8#5 ounces. She was 20 1/2 inches long. She was a little smaller than the dr. had predicted. Phew! She is really sweet and we are so happy to have her in our family.

I'm ready!!!!

Proud Daddy.

First real snuggles with Mommy.

L meets Grandma.
Notice all the dark hair. No, I don't have any explaining to do. I had dark hair when I was born too. It wasn't as thick though. This girl has tons of hair. I guess the old wives tale about heartburn is true!
So cute!!

I was only allowed 2 visitors during my whole stay at the hospital because of swine flu precautions. So, only Zack and my mom got to see the baby before we brought her home. I really missed C so we skipped out of the hospital as soon as we could, even if I had to lie about my pain management. Don't tell! C was so excited to see his new sister. He loves babies and especially His coot baby. L brought him a new motorcycle when she came home but he was much more excited about the baby.

If you didn't hear her name send me an email and I'll tell you the story behind it. And stay tuned cause we have tons of cute pictures waiting on the camera.

Congrats! I've been waiting for a post about the new baby and I completely missed it last week. I'm so sorry. I hope your pain management really is better now and that recovery with a toddler at home is going okay.
