Welcoming Sophia Grace

And we're back! So, I've taken about a year off from updating our blog, but I've decided to try it again! So much has happened since my last post... namely our family was blessed with another miracle when Sophia Grace was born on December 1, 2010. Our little Miss Isabelle turned into a big girl overnight it seems. She celebrated her 3rd birthday on December 9 and has been the best big sister ever!! Jason and I enjoy every moment of being parents... even the trying ones ;) Our girls are our world and therefore, this blog will mostly be about THEM! Enjoy! ***WARNING*** There is a bare belly shot in this post- so if that sort of thing grosses you out, you may want to proceed to the next post! :)
November 30: This picture was taken the night before Sophia was born, after we found out that they would be doing the c-section the following day. While I may look at peace, I was feeling very, very nervous!


Baby Belly... less than 24 hours before we would meet her!

Our precious little "peanut" arrives! This photo was taken just moments after she was born... there were a few issues with her heartrate and blood sugar so she was being monitored and helped by NICU staff in the delivery room. They had to use gavage feeding initially to help control her blood sugar. It worked and then she was able to nurse within the first few hours. We feel so lucky that all of these issues were resolved within her first days of life.

Daddy cutting the cord :)


Our beautiful baby girl- 5 lbs. 17 1/2 in.
