Katie's birth - long version
(January 11, 2004)
Big Teddy and Sing-Along-Care-Bear waiting for Katie.
And there she is, fully cooked!  Look at that chubby leg!  WELCOME KATIE!!!!!


Such a good girl, she hardly even cried!

 Her first look at the world outside mommy's tummy.
Katie knows her daddy and grabs onto him.
Finally, being in Mommy's arms for the first time.
Tired but happy.
Moving from the labor and delivery to the post partum room. Mommy looks worse than she feels!
Mommy could cuddle with her all the time
Precious moment-Daddy and Katie.
 Tasty hospital food.  Mommy was so hungry she would have eaten anything!
Mmmmmmm.....(smiling b/c the drugs haven't worn off yet!)
The chilly day Katie was born.
Sleeping beauty
So tired
Snuggling with Daddy
Daddy getting some much needed rest
Presents from the family
Yet another stuffed animal for Katie!
Never going to let you go!
Hey bright eyes!  Katie finally wakes up...isn't she beautiful!!!
