Meet Baby Grace...

We are just so in love with her and extremely thankful to God for the wonderful gift she is! After a long labor, she arrived on Monday at 1:03pm weighing 7 1/2 lbs. and measuring
20 in. long

Good to know she already has a sense of humor!

Here's what she thinks of having jaundice. ;) We were discharged Tues. evening, but headed back to the hospital this afternoon when she became very lethargic and was having trouble eating. We waited for the blood results and were glad to be allowed to bring her back home. She's been doing much better since this evening...who knew we'd be so happy when she finally pooped! The many joys of parenting we have to look forward to. We'll be taking her to the pediatrician tomorrow just to make sure she's really getting over it. Thank you all for your love, prayers, and support.

Making Progress...

So time is winding down, but our list of things to do hasn't! We've been very busy lately. My mom and sister moved out 3 weeks ago--they were able to move into the place right next door. We've all been working hard to get everyone settled...sorting, yard sale tomorrow, moving storage units, my last day of work, painting baby furniture...I'm sure you can imagine. It's been a stressful time, but little by little we've been checking things off our list and getting more "ready" for our little girl to arrive--although, as someone aptly pointed out, "you're never completely ready"! Ready or not, we can't wait to see and hold Baby Grace.
