baby olive is here!


wow.. i have so much to say, but yet it is so hard to put the last 4 days into words! my water broke at noon on friday, april 4th and olive louise was born at 1:00 am on saturday, april 5th. it was an absolutely amazing experience, more than i could have ever imagined. i was lucky to be able to have a completely natural labor and delivery, everything worked out so well and my recovery has been great. olive was 6lbs 10oz, nice sized, but still a 5 week early premie. she needed a little assistance breathing at frist, but was released from the nursery after 1 hour.. josh was with her holding her hands the whole time. we are mesmerized with how incredibly perfectly beautiful she is, we cannot seem to put her down!

we hope to begin sharing lots of pictures and details with you soon, but i wanted to let you all know we are doing great and let you have a peek at her!
