Baby Madness

Hello everyone,

I know it has been a long time since I last posted. Things have been nuts to say the least. But I wanted to post an update!

We settled into our new home in Mid-May. Just in time to get started on the nursery. Then on July 2, at 10:30AM, she was born weighing 8lbs even and measuring 20 1/4 inches.

She did really well and the delivery was smooth. Her cord was wrapped around her neck, but the dr was able to get it unwrapped during delivery and an emergency c-section was not necessary. There was one minor complication because our blood types are so different there was a concern over jaundice, but her billiruben levels never went out of the normal range. YAY!

Here's a picture of our new little angel:



Hope everyone is doing well and the writing is going great! I'm hoping to just be able to READ some soon. LOL!

Thanks so much, ladies! I have missed you all so much! I'm hoping once I get our days a little more routine I'll be able to get back to writing. The itch has been burning. In the meantime, I'm enjoying every second I can with her! :o)
