Your Birth

I wish I had thought of this idea sooner, but as you are only (almost) four months old, I haven't missed too much. The first few posts will be catching up with your first months of life.

Your Birth

You were born at exactly 4am on the day the Packers beat the Bears for a trip to the Super Bowl (which they, of course, won). I was in labor for 3.5 hours. The first thing I said when the nurse held you up for me to see was (and I do apologize for this) "Holy Sh*t! It's my baby!" You see, I have wanted you since I was a little girl myself and I was so excited you were finally in my life and soon to be in my arms.

You weighed 7lbs 6oz and were 19inches long. Your eyes were a very dark blue and would watch me and daddy intently from the moment you were born. We held you non-stop in the hospital: myself, daddy and the 17 visitors that came to see you.  Your grandparents were so excited to meet you!

You were beautiful from the moment we first laid eyes on you.
