It has been a whirlwind for us as we welcomed our daughter Olivia in to the world. We eagerly awaited her arrival for nine months and she was worth the wait. After going five days over due we had to persuade her to leave her cozy home. We arrived at the hospital at 6:00 AM to have Rachel induced. After a long hard day, Olivia arrived at 9:42 PM on October 16. She weighed 8 pounds 12 ounces. She is so beautiful, it was love at first sight. She was healthy from the start and we were able to go home after two nights in the hospital. Bringing her home was so much fun, Rachel's mom was such a great help we could not have done it with out her. We have realized why Olivia had to be coaxed out, she loves being swadled tight like in the womb, and staying cozy and warm. She is a great sleeper usually sleeping up to five hours at night. She went for a walk with dad in her baby bjorn at five days old and loves it. Below are pictures that are from her first day of life till now.
