One week ago today we were still waiting . . . and not so patiently. One week ago tomorrow, we were welcoming the newest member of our family. She's beautiful. Breathtaking. Incredible.
Megan Leigh was born at 2:24 p.m. on Tuesday, February 5. Fat Tuesday. Super Tuesday. It was a good day all around.
My labor with Megan was harder and a bit longer than with Ellie, but the delivery was actually a nice experience. I dilated from a 6 to a 10 in about five minutes, I had a few minutes reprieve, and I pushed through two contractions (four pushes in all) for less than five minutes. Then she was there. 19 1/2 inches long. 7 lbs. 12 oz. And I lost my heart again.
She looks almost exactly like her big sister did.
Congratulations! She's beautiful!!!
