Moving On

If all goes according to plan, Micah will have a new cousin exactly 18 months after he was born...today, March 15th! Yana is being induced today at the hospital where D works as I write this (told him he can't sneak up to see the baby before me if she arrives during work hours!!). We are so excited to welcome her into our growing family and can't wait to see what she looks like and hold her and all the fun things that go along with having a baby (including being able to give her back to her mommy and daddy and get a good night's sleep!). Yana wants to go all natural, so please pray all goes well with that and our little girl is born safe and healthy...and soon! Ry and Yana have been such a great and involved uncle and auntie pair with M, so we all know what wonderful parents they will be! I'll post an update as soon as I know anything!!

Breana London was born early this morning, March 16th, at 3:29am at 8.5 pounds and 21" long. Got that info from Mom via text around 4:30am since she was there to witness the birth! Ry sent me a picture this morning and her eyes were WIDE open. Can't wait to see her in person, although I think D might beat me there :(. M has a doctor's appointment and then it's naptime right at the beginning of visiting hours! I won't be posting a picture here, so contact Ry or Yana...or Mom or Dad...if you would like to see M's first cousin on his mommy's side!

M and I followed Dad and Mom to the hospital before M's doctor's appointment around noontime, so we did get to see Breana today!!!!! I admit that I hogged her almost the entire time I was there (about 40 minutes), but I couldn't help it. She is such an adorable, quite, cute, cuddly little girl with a TON of dark hair. She looks totally like Yana's side of the family face on, but somehow she has Ryan's profile. M saw her and said "Hi BeeBee" but didn't pay her much mind after that, which was nice and odd. Nice because I got to hold Breana without interruption and odd because I thought he'd mind me holding another baby. He loves her already! Can't wait to hog, I mean hold, her in the days and weeks to come. Oh yes, D was able to tear himself away from his work and visit while we were there. I let him hold the baby for a good minute. I was feeling generous. We are heading up to Boston for a few days tomorrow (D's on vacation until Monday), so I had better start packing. Maybe we can sneak in another visit to the hospital on our way up there tomorrow...we have to pass right by it...
