After 2 hours of screening, Dani convinced the nurses that she was in active labor by having a baby. Not really, but we did have to demonstrate "progress" to be admitted. Here sweet Amelia rests after 10 minutes of the hard life. Stats: 8lbs 11oz, 21 inches. 9 APGAR score. Otherwise, ideal health. Phew.

Here, Abbey is less than transparent about the new arrangement, but she's had a rough 2 days of adjustment.

As an added bonus, Amelia Teresa was born on here grandmother's (Teresa's) birthday! Happy 30th, mom-in-law!
Welcome to the world Amelia! Congrats mom, dad, and big sister. She's a cutie (and BIG). We're glad to hear everyone is healthy and happy.
ReplyDeleteWe'll be shooting for that perfect 10 APGAR...is there a way to bribe the nurses to get a higher score?
ReplyDeleteCongratulations! What a beautiful family. Now how long do we have to wait for number 3?
ReplyDeleteMan. One more step towards Gibbs world domination.
