Adelaide Jolee

I've been on this crazy diet for the last nine months.

It worked though! I'm proud to say I lost 8 lbs and 3 oz! hahaha......

Adelaide Jolee
Born June 17th at 1am
21.5 inches long
8 pounds 3 ounces
She weighed a whole 2 pounds less than our ultrasound the day before estimated. I've never been so glad to be so wrong Ü. Her middle name comes from her Grandma Hunt.

Such a lady to cross her legs.

Very mellow

I'm looking so happy because I only had to push for one contraction (a total of a minute and a half) before she fell into the doctor's arms!

Still mellow

She's got the little butt chin too!

Grandma and Baby Addy


Dr. Deacon came the next day to check her vitals.

Deacon reminds me of my dad in this picture how he is biting his tongue and grinning.

His very first look at his baby sister.

Looking "thrilled" to be holding the balloon my mom bought.
I can just imagine a shirt that says "Nine months in the womb and all I got was a lousy balloon" Ü

Headed home!

Mom brought flowers to brighten my room, Nathan made sure they arrived home safely.

I just love her spiky hair!

We Were Robbed Ü

I laid down for a 20 minute nap. When I woke up, I discovered our house had been ransacked! Cushions torn off the couch, moving boxes ripped open, baby shower decorations decimated. Fortunately, nothing was stolen. Deacon was the only witness, but he hasn't been forthcoming with details of the perpetrator...hahaha Ü

So Refined

My boys are so refined. I was in the other room and I heard them flipping through the TV channels. They stopped on an opera and watched it for about 20 minutes. I thought they had fallen asleep until I went and checked on them. Just enjoying culture and popcorn!

Coming Soon to a Hospital Near You

Nathan took this picture about 10 days before Deacon was born:

Same outfit, 2 years and 2 months later. About 10 days before Addy is due:

I had an ultrasound two weeks ago and she was measuring 40 weeks for her head, abdomen, and femur. We sure can grow 'em!
