Cut to Thursday, May 28th...it was a typical day around here. Meals, errands, swimming in Jill's pool. All week Brian had been working late but for "some reason" came home early. We were enjoying some fun family time, laughing, tickling, soaking up precious moments with Liv. Malory wanted in on the fun and boy did she make an entrance. I stood up and all the sudden felt the strangest feeling I think I'll ever feel...water just gushing out of me. It was so surreal, but so exciting! I panicked for a few minutes, called the doctor, called the parents, changed my pants, calmed my usually cool as a cucumber husband and we raced a whole block across the street to the hospital. Four hours later, there she was...
All 6 pounds, 9.2 oz and 19.5 inches of her. My C Section went so smoothly and hearing her first cry...ask any mom, there's no better sound. She was here. I just couldn't stop smiling and crying. It was such a happy moment and we were so thankful to the Lord for our precious new daughter. She has a beautiful black mane and the tiniest features I have ever seen...she is a doll. I am so thrilled to be her mother. Here are some more photos from our surprise birthday party! Welcome to the world Malory...we love you and are so excited to have you here sooner rather than later! Thank you for giving us such a wonderful and spontaneous entrance.
About ready to head to the OR! How handsome does my man look in scrubs!?

She really is one of the cutest newborns I have ever seen! And I've seen a few (stella, jonah and ava ;) Congratulations!! I hope the adjustment to two is easy. So much fun. Be sure to kiss those soft cheeks often. That's one thing I miss the most, how soft and squishy their skin is!
Congratulations!!! I'm glad everything went (relatively) smoothly for you and that you have been blessed with such a sweet beautiful girl. And yes - you are crazy - I couldn't wait to get out of the hospital with my munchkins!! Please give Brian and your girlS an extra hug for us.
Love it my friend! Loved hearing all the little jesus romances yesterday when we chatted and how God worked out every detail and knew Malory was to be born 3 weeks early! Love you and can't wait to hug you both!!! xoxo
