Hospital Pics






The hospital comes out and takes some newborn pics- here's Brooklyn's. Geez- she's already changing!! LOOK AT OUR PRETTY PRINCESS!!

BROOKLYN REESE!!!






IS HERE! We went in for our scheduled induction on Wednesday November 5th at 6am. Just like with Jade- Jason and I holding hands and laughing! We get checked in they start my IV and start the potocin. The Doctor comes in around 10am and breaks my water and the games begin. After 12 hours of labor (with my epidural- which I love!) I was informed by the nurse to start pushing at 4:15pm. A couple "practice" pushes and we call the Dr.- she pops in and for about 5 contractions I push and out she comes! (So SO So much easier this time around than with Jade- for those of you who have forgotten I pushed for 2 1/2 hours with him) She was so petite- though weighing in at 8lbs 7ounces. Born at 4:35pm- and as perfect as can be. I was so surprised to see her look soooo much like Jade- but with girly features. She makes us a perfect family of 4!

Brooklyn's Dr. checked her out and said she looked perfect- however due to come "complications" seen on my 20 week sonogram he ordered a heart and brain sonogram on her. 1st we got the results from the brain scan back and it looked perfect. The heart scan came back with "normal heart changes for an infant" but all in all- everything is great!! Jason and I were so glad that her Dr. wanted these scans done on her- just for added closure.

We are so happy and blessed to have our happy- healthy baby girl!
