The New Girl

She's here! I had actually talked myself into the fact that i would go over my due date so much that i had trouble believing i was actually in labor, or that shes actually here. My water broke at 12:45am. We had sadly gone to bed at 12:30(isnt that always the way it happens, ugh) and we were wishing we had gone to bed at seven so we wouldnt start this out being COMPLETELY  exhausted, but oh well. Nine hours of labor and I got my epidural. I dilated from a 4 to a 10 in fifteen mins and she came out in about 5-10mins of pushing. Total awesomeness compared to labor with Emma. Jenny is doing awesome and we're so glad to have her safely here. We named her while we were literally walking out the door because the charge nurse said we couldn't leave until we did, which is total bologna by the way. But I let her say it just to put enough pressure on Kallam to make a decision. 

Emma loved her from the moment they met. Sometimes she loves her a little too much.We feel like a broken record sometimes. 

"she's sleeping, don't bother her" "you're hugging too hard" 

 And Emma pretty much wants to hold her all the time. 

Or snuggle with her on the couch. 

I  was so lucky to have our favorite newborn photographer Kylie Pond come all the way up here from the valley to take a photo shoot of our new family member, especially with crazy Emma running around the room like a crazy person. I'm glad she has family up here, and therefore reasons to come up. As you will see, Emma and Jenny are definitely siblings. You can see the similarities, but we also are thinking Jenny will definitely have her own features too. Enjoy!
