Mila Jeannine (named for my Granny Jeanne) joined our family at 8:41AM on July 3, 2010. She was 5lbs 8oz and 18.5inches--my tiniest baby yet! Mila was my best labor and delivery thanks to my first EVER successful epidural. (Yay!!)
On July 2nd, I labored all day long while attending the funeral of my late Granny. She was a very special lady and I miss her SO much. I was so sad that Granny wasn't able to see Mila here on earth. Granny passed 6 short days before Mila was born. I felt comforted in knowing that they were in heaven together for that one short week--and I believe that Mila came to me when she did (3 weeks early) to help fill the hole in my heart from the loss of my Granny.
Mila is a sweet baby. I can already tell that she has a feisty little personality. Thankfully, her sisters and brother are thrilled that she's here--no jealous siblings! Cliff, as always, is a fantastic husband and father--helping me through my labor/delivery and taking care of everybody else so I can rest. My parents and sister were conveniently in town for the funeral and were able to take the kids for the weekend so we could get settled at home. Thank you to all our friends and family for all of your love and support!
Here are some pictures from the hospital.
