Marjorie Ann - Day 1





Tanner here, filling in for Nichole, for obvious reasons.  Day one of Marjorie Ann's life is in the history books and it was a memorable day.  She came out of the warm confines of the womb at 12:27 PM weighing in at 8 pounds exactly (officially 7 pounds and 15.6 ounces) and 21 inches in length.  Nichole's grandmother (and the woman who Marjorie Ann is named) was the only one who guessed the correct weight, and was rewarded with the first hold.  Nichole is feeling better.  She has had all "cords" removed from her, and has ensured that Marjorie Ann will be our last child (clip, clip)!!  We had many visitors, all family, and we felt right at home.  It is great having so many family members right here with us.  We are very grateful for the visits and the care they are giving to our other two kids right now.

As expected, sleep was at a premium.  We "went to bed" at 11:30, woke up at 12:45, 1:45, 4:00 and 5:15.  Hopefully, there will be a change to that schedule tonight.  Congratulations to Taylor and Bella for now being a big, big brother and a big sister, respectively.  They were both very good with Marjorie Ann.  Taylor held her for a long time and Bella gave her lots of mu-wahs.  Alright, back to the baby.
