The Amy Chronicles

Saturday, April 28, 2007



What a day Wednesday was. Jeff and I got to the hospital at 5:30am and got checked in. It was a bit sureal to know that 2 hours later, Jeff and I would get to meet Tallulah.
At 7:45am, she was out and screaming like a banchee. What a wrinkly, gunky, bloody little girl. I still kissed her though, even though she was spitting up amniotic fluid.
Then Jeff was whisked away with her to the nursery to watch her get her first bath and everything. I laid there in the operating room and couldn't help but cry. After I was all sewn up, I was taken away to the treatment center and monitored for the next couple of hours. The hospital that I was at had just had an explosion of babies...so I had to wait in the treatment center until they had a room ready for me.
Once I got into my room, they brought the baby to me and it was bond time from there on out. She looks just like Jeff...even still a few days later...she looks like him. I love it that he has a daughter and I love it that her eyes are just like his. She is my sweet baby girl and I love her more than I could have imagined.
Israel is so sweet with her and loves to give her hugs and kisses. I can't wait until she can play with him. I think that they will have so much fun together.

Well...the recovery so far has been good and the percocet has been even better.

Thanks for all of your prayers and comments. Come and visit us anytime.
