Our family has grown!

She is finally here and our little family is now complete! Eliza Grace Davis was born on 2am on Thursday, 12-31-09 - a New Years Eve and blue moon baby! She weighed in at 8 pounds, 6 ounces and was 20 inches long. Delivery was much different this time - it involved a frantic hospital trip with various traffic violations, the experience of bad contractions without an epidural (don't worry - I finally got it and I literally could have kissed that doctor at the time!), and finally three pushes and out she came. Much different than the 28 hour labor with Drew! We were able to come home to meet big brother on Saturday evening. The meeting has gone well - Drew is very interested in his baby sister but he is definitely having an adjustment period like the rest of us. Eliza is doing great! Her weight had dropped to 7 pounds, 13 ounces, but I think now we are on the upswing with that and she is starting to start eating more and more now. She sleeps a lot now (except when you want her to of course!), but she is starting to open her eyes more and more to learn about her new world.

She's here and perfect! Proud Mommy and Daddy. Proud Meema, Nana and Aunt Sistah We're home!!! Drew finally meets this "baby sister" he's been hearing so much about I will try to update soon with some open-eyed pictures!
