Sorry I have not been on. Super tired and recovering because guess what?? Our little angel arrived (after having to be induced a week after my due date) on Friday June 26th at 3:56pm. She was born at all of 9lbs, 2oz, & 21in. She has a full head of hair and is quite the eater ;) I really am super tired and after delivering her a full 3 lbs larger than her older sister; I am quite sore LOL! I am including a few pictures, please forgive that I was not quite up to the edit. Don't look at the tired mommy, just enjoy my two angels (ages 4 and newborn)

Thanks Jules~
Jerri H. Jun 29, 2009, 9:50pm EDT

The interesting part is that 1st daughter got the Dutch/German coloring from both sides and it appears 2nd daughter may have gotten the American Indian coloring from both sides as well!

She's beautiful

Thanks Lisa!
Ellie !. Jun 29, 2009, 9:56pm EDT

Glad you're home. Bet that's nice. BUT, OUCH! That girl was just enjoying the meal plan and warm cozy too much. Seriously...good job taking care of her. She got a good start and that will help. I should post the picture of my one-month-old daughter next to her 2-hour-old cousin. The cousin was born at 9 lbs., 15 oz....mine was 5 lbs., 5 oz. at birth and still dwarfed by the cousin a month later.

It took my oldest until she was five months old to sleep through the night. I'm hoping Zoe gives you 8 hours of sleep long before that
Jerri H. Jun 30, 2009, 5:19pm EDT

Thanks Ellie...my first daughter was sleeping through the night by five months as well..hubby swears by the little bit of cereal in her night bottle was the way.
Ellie !. Jun 30, 2009, 11:37pm EDT

Ha! You're nicer than me. At five months and the fact that she was chunky (no failure to thrive for that little preemie!), I started giving her WATER when she woke up in the middle of the night...after two days, she decided she would rather sleep than drink water! And...all that baby fat didn't hurt her one bit...or being a preemie. Now, at almost 22, she's 5'9" strong, but lean.

Get some rest. And take pictures...poor #2 had a few...poor #3 hardly any!

;-)
flit . Jun 29, 2009, 10:06pm EDT

congratulations! She's gorgeous like her big sister

Ellie, my sister's first was 11lbs 11oz...can you imagine!?
Jerri H. Jun 30, 2009, 5:20pm EDT

Wow, I don't think I could have had her any bigger...thanks Flit~
Bridget ♥ Jun 29, 2009, 10:07pm EDT

Nancy S. Jun 29, 2009, 11:57pm EDT

Look at the cheeks on that child!  She is so precious Jerri.  Her big sis looks so proud.  I think you'll have a lot of help.
Jerri H. Jun 30, 2009, 5:27pm EDT

Oh I love those soft squishy cheeks! Her big sis is already a large help (at times LOL!) Thanks Nancy!
Janet "Jax" B. Jun 29, 2009, 11:58pm EDT

Jerri H. Jun 30, 2009, 5:28pm EDT

Holy cow you aren't kidding Janet! But as not nice as the inducement was I wouldn't trade it for being pregnant any longer LOL! Thanks!!

I'd seen your new icon around but hadn't gotten over here. Finally made it. Congratulations! She is adorable.

My first one was 9 lbs 11 oz and I was glad when the 2nd two were a little smaller.
Jerri H. Aug 14, 2009, 12:58am EDT
C was 6lbs 2oz and Z here was 9lbs 3oz. I don't think I could have handled an ounce more ;) Thanks Wilma!!
Monica H. Nov 16, 2009, 2:58am EST
Although I am a bit late..........I still want to wish you family Congratulations on your new edition.
Monica H. Nov 16, 2009, 2:59am EST
My daughter Maddie was 9pounds and 14 ounces and they ended up having to do an emergency C-section. I pushed for what seemed like hours, but she just was not coming out of there. ha ha ha
