Little Lady is Here!

Well the day has come and gone... or should I say days have come and gone and this little girl is FINALLY here!!! I wont get into the labor story because it was 30 hours long.... and it could take a million blog posts to get through the whole thing, all I can say is if that happens again we are going to be a 2 kid family ONLY! We are nothing but happy to have her part of our family!

October 18 * 12:26 pm * 6lb 14oz * 19.5 in. long


Now Some Thoughts:

* I am getting really good at staying calm during her amazingly long crying sessions!
* She sleeps like a champion and makes things a lot easier on me, sometimes I think she sleeps to long
* Gentry told me that if I was a milk cow I would be a champion...weird
* Criminal minds has become one of my favorite shows
* Staying home alone with a baby all day can get tough and so when Gentry gets home I am ecstatic to talk to an adult but most times he is so worn out from the day that our conversations have become quite short
* People don't update on Facebook enough in the day... or I check it to much :)
* My phone battery use to last 2 days but not any longer, I should probably find better things to do with my time
* Buying diapers is expensive! Especially if your child is so small that she is still in NB and probably will be there awhile and all you have is a closet full of size 1... lame!
* Same with clothes! She has a ton 0-3 Months but they are much to big on her so she rocks onsies all the time, I feel bad
* We have been to church twice and both times she slept through the whole thing, she is a rock star
* She takes forever to wake up, I think she gets that from me! I wonder if me snoozing my alarm so many times while she was in the womb affected her...my guess is yes!
* She gives the best evil eye while eating
* Often times I feel like she looks like a monkey
* She is the gas master, no joke, she ripped one in Sunday school and I couldn't stop laughing I felt kind of immature but for reals it was hilarious!
* Sometimes I shoot her in the face with milk... its totally on accident but I laugh hysterically 
* Being a mom is tough work but when she is happy, healthy and growing it brings a smile to my face
