First bath and fun with family and friends!

All done! Claire had her first bath yesterday out of necessity! She seemed to like the water and her aunt Kristie stopped over to help us out!

Madeline, Aubriana, and Claire! We didn't have an easy time getting a photo-better luck next time!

Claire meeting Grandpa Dennis and Grandma Pam for the first time! They were nice and tan since they had just returned from Cabo!

Precious Claire is here!

I had an induction scheduled at 2:30 am on 8-8-09. We left our house at 1:50 am and headed into the city. Here is the last pic of me prior to being poked, proded, and cut!!

At 5:26, Claire entered the world. She was 20 inches long at birth and 7 lbs 3 oz. Meeing our baby for the first time and our first family photo!

Kisses for my baby!

Aunt Jill and Kristie love Claire!

Claire really loves cuddling with her daddy!

Here she is at 2 days old!

First binky-I call her the suck-o-saurous!
The shirt from the hospital is too big!

Our first day at home and meeting cousin Madeline for the first time! We came home on Tuesday, Aug. 11th and left the hospital at 3 pm.


Nice decorations! Thanks mom!

Claire has been amazing and we love her so much!

Baby should be here by 8-8!

We are scheduled to be induced at 2:30 am on Saturday. If she decides to come sooner, we won't mind, but it's nice to know that we'll get to meet her soon!

At our visit yesterday, everything looked great with our baby girl. They did an ultrasound and her estimated weight is 7 lbs 9 oz. She is growing fast! Everything looks good in terms of the fluid and blood flow, as well as her heart beat (we did fetal heart rate monitoring). Luckily for me, I feel well too! So far, still no contractions and I'm not dilated at all.

Our next post should be of our daughter!
