My birthday is October 21st, Chris's birthday is December 21st, and Emme's birthday is November 21st. So now remembering birthdays should require no thought on Chris's part, right? (However, planning the next baby to fall on another 21st could require a little more effort...)
I'll save the birth story for another post, because it's a long (and scary) one. We're just glad to have our little one here safe and sound! We don't think she could possibly be any cuter, we love her to death already.
{Our first family photo!}Chris went home to shower and rest for a few hours today, and when he got back to the hospital to hold Emme he said to her that he thought she got even more beautiful while he was gone. How sweet is that? She's already got him wrapped around her little finger.
{The proud daddy about to give Emme her first bath.}She's such a good baby so far, and she's got a full head of dark hair. Who knew I could produce a baby with actual hair? I'm in shock. :) She just sleeps and eats and watches us. And she already knows our voices because talking to her calms her right down.
We feel so blessed to have her here safe and sound. Thank you all for your prayers! We couldn't be more in love with her!

oh my gosh!!! Congratulations!! I'm so happy for you!!! She almost was toddler size! lol (j/k).
Happy birthday Emme, Annalisa and Chris! What a beauty! Look at how smitten she is with you in the first picture (I know technically she can't see very well, but how could that look be anything else).
Can't wait to hear the whole story, but I won't hold my breath. All bets are off on our "free time" after we become mommies.
Congratulations again! You have a very beautiful family!
Congratulations, I'm glad she decided to come!
Congratulations! Beautiful little girl!
Congrats! she is a doll!

A few days ago I was walking around and had this stark realization that you'd had the Bambina.
I'm sorry her entrance was scary. I'm so glad you 3 are safe & healthy.
You look beautiful and she is perfection. We love Emme!
CONGRATULATIONS!!! You are the cutest family ever =)
