Baby B

Well, you asked for pictures, so here we go!

Brooklyn Olivia was born on May 23, 2011 weighing in at 7 lbs 14 oz and 18 1/4 inches long. Here I am shortly before going into the OR. I probably hadn't thrown up yet and that's why I'm smiling!

Brandon had a few firsts this go round: He actually watched the doctors pull her out of me, and he got to cut the cord.
Brooklyn thought that she wanted to go back where it was warm.
Meeting my baby while I was getting all sewn up.
And having a little snuggle time.
She is by far our shortest baby, although she weighed more than Samantha and Hallie.
Proud Daddy.
And 3 very proud sisters
Hallie wanted to hold her the whole time.




Nap time. Brandon actually stayed with me for the entire hospital stay because this hospital didn't have a nursery. It was kind of like a little vacation!

Getting ready to go home!

Here's a little comparison of all the girls, though they are not quite all the same age, but within a month of each other:

Even though we are sleep deprived, we love having a new baby in our family. The girls are so helpful and adore her. And I am SO GLAD to not be pregnant!!! Love you Brookie!
