Catching Up: Charlotte's Birthday

Charlotte arrived on November 8th, four weeks early. I was diagnosed with preeclampsia a few weeks prior, and after a particularly rough weekend went into the doctor who sent me immediately to the hospital to be induced. It was by far my longest and most difficult labor (10 hours), but Charlotte's arrival was one of the happiest moments in my life. Since I felt so poorly after delivery, we didn't allow many visitors, but the ones we had were a blessing to us! Thanks for bringing David dinner, our children to visit, cupcakes, unicorns, laughs, ...

Here are a few pictures from her first day(s).

Miss Linda drove all the way from Kansas to see us!

Sweet little fingers

Going home early!

Of course our families were there, but since David took all those photos without the card in the camera... :)
