She's Here!!!!!!!

I am so excited to introduce to you our newest little lady!!

Miss Explorer was born Friday, September 30th at 9:23 am.  37 1/2 hours AFTER my water broke.  Needless to say, her labor was nothing like I had planned or imagined, but I learned a lot and prayed a lot and by the grace of God she was born healthy and vaginally.  It was crazy, but oh so worth it. 

I hope to get her birth story and more pictures up later this week.  We are dealing with a bit of jaundice so I wont be around much this week. 

The give away for Gabby, God's Little Angel will still end tomorrow, October 4th, at midnight. So, dont forget to enter.

Have a great week & God Bless!!

    Congrats, She is beautiful! All my babies had Jaundice and needed bloodwork every 48 hours to check bilirubin for 2-3 weeks :( poor babies feet were so bad. Only my last one was bad enough to need bili lights at home.

    Good luck, keep us updated.
