Sleepy Baby

Sophia's favorite sleeping position is to sleep with her little arms above her head. If we try and bundle her up and she cannot move her arms she gets SO MAD.

Sophia's Walk

Sophia's first walk! And all she did was stare at daddy the WHOLE time.

My precious baby girl

Sophia Grace is here!

After about 14 hours of labor, on July 8th 2010 at 2:07pm our beautiful baby girl Sophia Grace made her way into the world. She weighed 6 pounds 13 ounces and was 20 inches long. When she came out Sophia was a tiny bit blue so the NICU nurses took her into the hall to take a better look but she pinked up very quickly and was breathing fine on her own. I got to hold her for a couple minutes but then she was admitted to the NICU where her daddy kept a very close eye on her and stayed with her for all of her tests. The Cardiologist did an echocardiogram shortly after Sophia's birth and the diagnosis was exactly what we had anticipated. Sophia's pulmonary valve still looks great for a baby with TOF and her oxygen saturation is at 100 percent for now. Sophia did so well that on Friday night after one full day and night in the NICU she was released to my room. Kyle stayed up all night just watching her. He is already such a good dad! On Saturday afternoon we brought Sophia home and things are going really well. She already sleeps great during the night and she only cries when she is hungry or getting her clothes changed. We love our little girl so much! She is truly an angel.
