She's Home! She's Home!


Baby Girl is here! We brought her home last night, finally arriving home around 6 pm. We got to the hospital around 2:30, but they had to do the carseat oximeter (sp?) test, and that took an hour and a half, so it took a while before we could leave with her. But she's beautiful! And smaller than we were originally told. She came three weeks early, and was 5 lbs. 6.5 ounces, 17" long at birth. When they released her to us, she was 5 lbs. .5 ounce. But her brother was only 5 lbs. 2 ounces when we brought him home, so it was practically the same. Although I really don't remember him being this tiny! She has a full head of red hair, and looks just like her big brother! She was born on the 24th, which ironically was the first year anniversary of us bringing her brother home. Kind of wierd,huh?

We can't post a picture of her adorable little face, but here is one of her feet!
