Gwyn's Birth Day

This day started about 3 am when my water broke while I was sleeping. I woke Matt up, then we called our friend Katie. She came over and slept on the couch while we went to the hospital. Here we are in our room. 

Then, at 9:32 am, Gwyneth Eve Shumate was born. She was 5 days early. Gwyn weighed 7 lbs 11 0z and was 19 1/2 inches long.

What a sweet baby!

Katie took Reagan to school  and kept Kelsey with her for the morning. Matt picked them up around lunchtime and brought them back to the hospital. In this picture, Reagan and Kelsey are seeing Gwyn for the first time. They've been waiting a long time for this. 

Can't you just see the love in their eyes?


Kelsey couldn't get enough of her.

Reagan wrote this for her. I heart you. How sweet. 

The nurses threw us a little party. We even got a cake!
