Introducing Madeline Elizabeth!

Madeline Elizabeth made her debut on November 10 at 10:25am! I had to have a scheduled c-section since was breech and refused to turn when the doctors tried. The c-section was textbook perfect and although she was a little stubborn about coming out once she did she made her presence known. We stayed in the hospital for two days before coming home on the 12th. Our midwives and nurses were amazing and although none of them will ever read this I just want to say how grateful I am for the excellent care both Madeline and I received.

Chris is completely in love with his little girl and is a natural when it comes to caring for her. My mom is staying with us for 3 weeks (yeah!!) to help since Chris is still in the middle of his MA and has a lot going on right now. I will post pictures of Maddie's first few days in the next post.
