Brooklyn's "birth" day

On the morning of November 5th we arrived at St. Joseph's hospital at 5:30am. After they prepped me for my c-section I headed to the operating room where Brooklyn Anne Sanford was born at 8:02am, weighing in at 8 pounds 4 ounces and 20 inches long. Everything went great! In recovery we were surrounded by lots of family, it was such a special time. Brooklyn & I stayed in the hospital for 3 days, it was so neat to have her in the room with me (remember, Rylie went to CHOC after she was born). Plus, I actually got to take a baby home when I left the hospital, such a different experience :) And like always my husband was amazing, he is so smitten with his two girls! "Thank you to everyone who stopped by, called, text, and thought about us. We are truely blessed!"

Here are a few pictures from the morning Brooklyn came into the world...

It's almost time!

Only 2 more days! but who's counting? Oh that's right...I AM!!! My c-section is scheduled for Monday Nov. 5th at 7:30am. This last week has not been fun, I haven't felt good all week (I think I had a touch of the flu or something). Thank goodness my parents are here and I have such a wonderful husband! We are all sooooo excited to meet this new baby girl.

We had a great Halloween, and I have lots of pictures. We also had a great time at the pumpkin patch. I'll try to post pictures soon...

Can't wait to share the news (and pics) of our new princess!

Hope everyone has a wonderful weekend!
