A long, slow induction meant hospital food a few times....not that I felt like eating |
The waiting was torture! |
And away we go....1 hour 15 minutes after starting and she was here |
Being born at 2:05pm was perfect for Daddy Joe to race in and pick up Faith at 3pm. Pretty cool moment to see her walk in and meet our baby for the first time |
'Faith's soap' (we always had to use it when she was in SCBU so the smell will forever remind us of our biggest girl) |
My little zebra ready to go home about 3 hours after she was born |
My goodness there is so much love in Ella's heart for her little Dallin. As I type this they're sitting in the lounge together having morning cuddles |
Aunty Nae was an angel sent from heaven to look after the big girls for the weekend (with Grandie and Uncle Stanie). Can't thank them enough! |
1st time in her bassinet |
Big brother's pretty good with her....most of the time |
1st time going to the mall (day 2) to pick up a few things from the supermarket |
Pick up on Monday afternoon. She did the pushchair most of the way to the car and then said it was just too heavy (and the street is pretty much flat!) |
This little darling loves to sleep on the beanbag. For this sleep I saved her from pokers and prodders in the lounge by hiding her in Seth's room |
Could fill an album with pics of these two having snuggles |
Mummy and big boy...all of a sudden he's huge, and talking like nothing |
Day 4....first time to the supermarket and it went better than expected thank goodness |
And there you have it. She's here, She's safe, healthy, happy, sleepy and gorgeous. I/We love her to pieces and are so excited to watch her grow - but not too fast!
Oh and her name is Dallin after Dallin H Oaks (Dad's favourite apostle) & Ligaya (said Lee-guy-ya) meaning Joy in Filipino (a tribute to Dad's mission).
So precious, what a gorgeous family xxxx
