Welcome Paige Elisabeth!


Oh my goodness - I can't believe it's already been an entire week since we welcomed beautiful Paige Elisabeth to our family! She arrived on Monday, March 22nd weighing in at a delightful 7 lbs. 10 oz. and measuring 20" in length.

As far as labor and delivery is concerned, all I can say is I am so blessed to have well-behaved children! Much like Mac, I was only in actual labor for a few hours and pushed for about 30 minutes total. That and thank goodness for epidurals!

Life ever since has been great. Paige is (fingers crossed!) waking up every 3 hours to eat but then going right back to bed. As a result, I'm tired but not completely exhausted the way I was with poor Mac and his acid reflux. I'm also really enjoying staying home - especially now that the weather is getting nice outside.

Mac is doing a great job of being a big brother. He loves to give Paige kisses and pets her head very affectionately every chance he gets. I know someday they'll fight but for now it's so sweet to watch them play so nicely!
