Amelia Grace

So, I'm not pregnant anymore.

Amelia Grace was born December 11th.  She weighed 7 lbs 13 oz and was 21 inches long.  She has very dark hair, much like Hannah's when she was born.  Hannah's gradually lightened to a dark blond, but Amelia's seems to be staying pretty dark.  Her eyes are dark blue right now, but They will probably change color even if it is only to lighten to the color of Hannah and Richard's eyes. 

The C-section recovery has gone very well.  I still have pain, but I don't need painkillers for recuperation.  I take them mainly for my shoulder pain.  I have this bad habit of holding the baby and trying to look at her all the time.  It ends up with my neck being held at a very odd angle.  I try to catch myself and straighten up, but I just want to look at her.  I think she's beautiful... but I'm kinda biased.  I'll let you decide. 

I'm very happy to not be pregnant anymore.  The pregnancy was long and hard.  Although there were no real emergencies, I did not enjoy feeling sick for 9 months straight.  I can now eat salad and drink water again whithout reflux. 

Well, being the mom of a newborn is a very busy job... have to go soothe a fussy baby...  bye now!

Wow... what a beautiful baby!

It seems we have something in common. My son was born on December 11, 2008. He weighed 8 pounds 14 ounces, and was 21 inches long. :)

Congratulations! And if you ever need some encouragement or want to talk to someone who knows what you're going through... keep me in mind! 'Cause I'm right there with ya!
