Her dads idea... 'he already thinks she's the center of attention'
We busted out early... 19 hrs old!!
He's a changed man now!!!
20 minutes old!!
1 hr.. Looks a little chubby in this photo just due to fast birth.. Really quite a dainty little thing!!As Robert Munsch would say... "a Promise is a Promise"... and our newest addition has been everything that little girls are promised to be.. We already can't imagine life without her...
She was born July 28, 2009 at 9:27 pm at the Foothills Hospital (thank goodness) exactly 9 minutes after her dad pushed the button at the parking lot there. The week before I had gone into labor for a full day before they stopped - thanks to what they call an "irritated uterus"... And so we waited .. although not very patiently. So there fore i wanted to make sure i was really "in labor" before we made yet another trip to the hospital... well needless to say we just about cut it a little close.. Anyways she weighed in at 6 lbs 15 oz, and was 21 " long. So far ... i mean its only day 3.. she is very content and already is very tolerant of the bumps , and sounds that two older brothers make. Here are a few of her first photos... We'll post more later as we get time.
P.S. The boys adore her... Isaac was willing to give her his 'blankie' and can't stop kissing her and stroking her hair, and Jace yesterday went over and put his head down on her chest for a little cuddle and then a slobbery kiss... (ok and then as 1 year olds do.. proceeded to use her head as a pushing off point to toddle off.. oh well)
P.P.S. Don't mind the bruising around her eyes... that's just a result of her 'fast flight to earth'...

Congratulations on your little girl.I can totally relate to how you feel. As I had the same 2 boys and then a girl. Wow! could hardly believe it when they tell you have a girl.... Now if your like me you will have to have 2 more boys to get another girl. So happy for you. It makes your family complete to get some of each. Take care and let them all look after you. Can;t wait to see her. Thanks for sharing the pictures. Sandi
Dear Wade and Leanna, Congratulations you guys, she's adorable. I guess you are getting to be old pros now, getting released from the hospital so quick, very nice indeed :0)
