Aubrey Ruth Merrill

AUBREY RUTH MERRILL
April 3, 2013
7lbs 9oz

Quick story:
Tuesday I had an appt and no signs that she was coming soon
Wednesday I woke up at 1:30am with small contractions
Arrived at the hospital at about 6:30am
She was born at 7:20am
I didn't get my epidural because she came so fast--ouch
Lessons learned: Always get an epidural and My babies come fast

But we are in heaven having her home with us!  Nate is loving having a baby sister, although we have to watch him very careful (a little too much love can scare a baby)

Here are some pictures:







Winner for my favorite picture ever

First family picture.  The lighting was a bit funny, Nate's hair is not yellow, but red.





I love this one :)



He just can't get enough of her!

My sweet momma

What do you think?  Do they look alike?

I think she looks like her cousin Austin in this picture

High Bilirubin levels so she gets to sunbathe in the window

 

Our one-legged girl.  She likes to have one leg out and one tucked up.

My three loves.  I am the luckiest girl alive.
