Our beautiful daughter

She is now 6 days old, and she is precious. She is sleeping about 4 hours during the night. She is a gourmet eater (5-15 minutes at a time with a 15-20 minute break, and does that for about and hour or two.) There have been a lot of firsts this week, and life does change drastically. It is exciting to learn her, but frustrating at the same time because of not knowing what she needs at that particular time.

First time we let Molly get close to Adelina

Adelina is here!!!

Christy and I are now proud parents of a beautiful baby girl. She was born on February 17, 2007. She was 7 lbs. 1oz. She has a full head of dirty blond hair, dark blue eyes (so far), and a very pretty face. We are so happy!!!

So far it has been long nights. It is definitely going to take some adjusting.

So...many of you knew that Adelina was not due till February 22. Christy went to her normal check up on Thursday the 15th and had very high blood pressure. The highest that it reached was 169 over 109. The doctor had Christy go to triage, and they did not let her go home. They decided that she needed to be induced. Things were progressing fine until everything just stopped. Adelina was dropping head down, but in the wrong position. The doctor decided that she needed a cesarean. The rest is history.

Is she not the cutest thing?!?

She is less than 30 minutes old.

Look how small she is. . .ahhhhh.

Adelina's nursery

These are pictures of Adelina's nursery. Myrril came over and painted a mural of butterflies and dragonflies that match our crib set. Now the nursery is finally ready for our baby girl!! And just in time too. We have 10 more days to go, but I would love it if it were sooner! :)
