Susanna May, our little bundle of joy, was born a week and a half ago, at 7 pounds 2 ounces. I started having regular contractions around 8am. We got to the hospital just after noon and she was born at 2:58 that afternoon. There were no complications thanks to the prayers of many people on our behalf. The nurses were excellent, especially our labor nurse. It was so nice having a baby during the day instead of in the middle of the night (like Addy). Jake and I felt a lot better this time, more rested and relaxed. Instead of not being able to get out of bed for over a day I was up and moving within a couple of hours. My parents took care of Addy while we were in the hospital, we really appreciated it!
Soon after she was born.....the first few minutes she spent with her momma.

All snuggled in with momma.
Jake said I looked ten times better after Susanna's birth versus Addy's birth.
Addy came with Grandma and Grandpa to meet the new addition, she didn't know what to think at first.

Easter Sunday! Addy came to show mommy and daddy how pretty she looked in her Easter dress.
