Welcome Genevieve Claire


Our Update:

Genevieve Claire is here. She was born October 28, 2008 at 3:40 am. My water broke at 1:00 am and she was here in a hurry. She weighed 7lbs 5 oz and was 20 in long. 

It is so funny to see how similar yet different the two girls are. Isabelle seems to be adjusting well. She loves to kiss her and pull on her legs, which Eve is not too sure about. Now that we are 3 weeks out I think I am doing better and settling into more of a routine. I think my postpartum bout was worse this time as nursing has been a bit of a nightmare, Eve has been struggling with Jaundice and Isabelle is in an awesome phase right now which sometimes leaves you thinking you are starting over. I tend to want to go, go, go and nursing a newborn makes you slow down, but I think that is God's plan to slow down because if I did not HAVE to slow down I probably would not take the time and I would miss out. 

Lately I have been taking the time to get to know Eve and spend more time with her. She loves to be swaddled and cuddled and she, like her sister is very sure of what she wants. It is funny to see it in her at only 3 weeks. 

Jason and I are doing well. We are adjusting. I am loving the fact that even though it is a time of transition that is not necessarily easy, I get to go through this time with my best friend who through this process I grow to love more each day.

Sorry to those of you I have not been able to chat with or email much. I do not have a lot of free time on my hands.
Isabelle and Eve
