She is here at last! On Tuesday, July 27th at 1:48 p.m. our Tessa Charlotte was born. She weighed in at 7 pounds 8 ounces and 20 3/4 inches long. Everything went wonderfully, and we're all doing well. I took advantage of the full 48 hours insurance allows you to be in the hospital, and just enjoyed the quiet time holding Tess. With Ellie and Matt in the house, there won't be enough of those quiet hours to just hold a newborn. I loved it.
Here are some pictures taken a few hours after she was born:
We're completely in love with this girl. Ellie and Matt beg to hold her and can't get enough of their Baby Tess. Ellie looked up at me with a smile yesterday and said, "Now we have two chicas in our family!" Today while looking at Tess sleeping she said, "She's OUR baby and we get to keep her in our family forever!" Smile.
