39 Weeks, 5 Days ~ Welcome Gracelyn Marie!!!!


1 week old






Wow! So it's been one week and one day since Grace was born and it has been the longest and fastest week of our lives! She is amazing in every way and you never think you can love someone so much!

I could go on and on about labor but I'll leave it at it is what it's called - labor! Hard work but so worth it in the end! I'll sum it up by saying my water broke at 2:15 am Wednesday July 6th, and Grace was born at 7:12 pm. I have the most amazing husband who kept me sane (and reminded me to breathe!) and a wonderful aunt Ann who was our doula who reminded me to open my eyes!

Since we've been home we have been working on figuring out what babies need and working our needs into her "schedule" haha. We have had a few extra doctor appointments for her since she hadn't gained the weight back like she should have but things seem to be better now! She's a very chill baby, doesn'y mind too much. She loves to snuggle and has gotten better about sitting in her swing or rocker when we need to get something around the house done! Everyone is welcome to come on over and hold her anytime you want!!! :)

Having a baby at home has also made me realize I will never bug my stepsister or sister in law to update their blogs hahaha Where does the time go?!?! ;)
