Introducing………………(drum roll please)
My brand new baby GIRL!
BRADYN MICHELLE!!!!!
Birthdate: 7/8/09 and she picked her own birthday. I didn’t even have to be induced. Story to come later.
Weight: 6.0 lbs
Length: 19 inches but at the first doctor’s appointment they measured her twice at 18.25. She had to be suctioned out so she came out a bit cone headed. I’ll trust the smaller number to be more accurate.


Holding my brand new baby girl!
Seriously…. isn’t she just a doll?!?!

Couldn’t you just squeeze those cheeks for days??? Yah, I know, hard to resist.
She’s got her momma’s lungs that’s for sure!
First bath!
Daddy’s first diaper change. Good job Dad!


And now the happy family is coming home!
Apologies that I haven’t updated sooner. I had a rough go of it in labor and am having a painful recovery. I’m just now coming out of the most painful days and am getting stronger every day. And every day I fall more in love with Bradyn and my husband.

Comment by zoeyjane July 17, 2009 @ 12:39 amI’ve been checking this religiously for TEN DAYS! CONGRATULATIONS! And I love her name! Sorry to hear you had a rough go of it. My first daughter was suctioned out, too. She had a cord around her shoulder. And how cool is her birthday at 7-8-9? Trust me, you’ll thank her later when you have to remember more than just hers at the pharmacy. ;oD
I’m so happy for you, she’s the cutest baby ever!

Oh! I think I feel my uterus contracting!! LOL Just kidding. Damn. Three more weeks to go. ;-P
