Default Baby is here (with pics!!)

I am so overwhelmed right now and tired but oh my gosh I just love her so much!! Alen (her dad) was crying when he came out with her. Which I thought was really cute/sweet. She was 6 lbs. 1/4 ounce for those who are not on my friends list on facebook. Looks like she got curly hair from her dad but mom's hair color& looks like she got mom's nose and her uncle Matthew's chin. (which really made me smile!!) Here are the photos I shared on facebook:

https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?...1&l=5cd4bc484d

You should be able to see them if not I'll upload to photobucket

I think this is probably the happiest I have been in months. I had a few minutes kinda alone with Austyn (while the lactation consultant was getting Crystal ready to nurse) and was holding her tiny little hand and just marveling over how soft her skin was. I did not get to hold her today because they keep the baby in the nursery for awhile and Crystal and Alen were so tired so we all left so they could rest. But yea like I said just totally overwhelming...if at all possible even more so then being a new mom.

Your granddaughter obviously will never replace your son, but she will be a ray of hope and joy for you in this world. Congratulations on this new little life!

Yay! Congrats! I told you it is amazing....and once you become a grandparent you "get it". I know I don't love my Laddy more than I love my kids but....idk it is just hard to explain the feeling. I am sooo happy for you and your family. Gives me chills all over.

I loved her so much before she was even here. It was really overwhelming. I mean I knew there was a baby growing in there but until I saw her it didnt feel really real. Then feeling so bad for my daughter being in so much pain. It was hard but still really good. Good news is she is feeling much much better!!

It is quite hard to watch them in that kind of pain isn't it? The good thing is that you know that pain comes with a huge reward! I know what you mean about being overwhelmed. I can't remember for sure but, I think I slept about 6 hours in 4 days.
