Well…..

THIS POST MAY CONTAIN AFFILIATE LINKS. I MAY EARN FROM QUALIFYING PURCHASES.
The waiting and the praying paid off. I’ll write the story out later, but, I was not induced, I got the epidural, and I only had to push 6 minutes!
And……It’s a girl!

N.G.
October 13, 2008, 8:16am
7 pounds, 2 ounces
20 inches long

She is beautiful and perfect! And, she looks just like #1!!

Just after her antibiotic eye treatment.

What a proud daddy.

#2 getting her first bath.
Here comes the proud big sister.

Kisses for her “baby sister.” She was right all along that it was a girl.

Already being a great big sister. #2 was fussing, and #1 immediately grabbed #2’s paci and gave it to her.

She wanted to hold her, but then, she wasn’t really sure.

More to come later! Thank you all for your comments and support!

I won’t likely be replying to comments or making many lately, but know that I hear you all muchos!!!
