She Is Here!

Miss Hannah Grace was born August 6, 2009 @ 8:40 PM weight 7 lbs 14 oz, 20 inches long. We are so overwhelmed with JOY! Completely speechless at the moment, just enjoying every minute of her presence. I went for my weekly checkup on Wednesday August 5, 2009 when I was told that my fluid level was low. Doc kept me overnight to monitor everything and check my fluid level the next morning. It was lower so she decided to induce. I went all morning and part of the afternoon with not much progress but then dialated fully in no time. It was time to labor but after 2 hours of pushing, doc realized that Hannah was sideways (her shoulders were vertical) so the best delivery would be C Section. That is how Hannah arrived, healthy as can be :). Recovery has been rough but all I have to do is look at her and nothing else really matters. I thought I knew the love that God has for me (and you) but I didn't really know until I met Hannah, wow! I have experienced an even deeper level of God's love! Every time I wrap my arms around her I think of how I feel when God wraps his arms around me. I pray that Hannah will always feel loved by us and by God, that she will always know how much she really is loved!
