Brooklyn Marie

Brooklyn will be a month old tomorrow November 1st. Wow, I can't believe its already been a month! In on month she has managed to gain a pound, grow 2 inches and roll over for the first time! (she rolled over Oct 29th!) But let me start a little from the beginning since I have never talked about her before....other than the fact shes not very photogenic. lol

Brooklyn was due September 27th and the little stinker she is came 3 days late.

I was so huge my stomach would almost touch my knees when sitting down! I started hating going to work because when I got around 8 months everyone would ask how overdue I was and I still had a month to go! My favorite (said with dripping sarcasm) is when people at work would ask if I was still pregnant...I'd stare down at my stomach for like 3 seconds and back at them "yep, still pregnant"....

32 weeks

38 weeks

40 weeks

But September 30th I began having contractions early that morning, so of course I went shopping, painted a picture frame, went walking at Nature Park in 50 mile and hour winds, and then finally late that afternoon went to my doctors to see if this was it!

I was dilated to a 4! So after getting some Nelson's frozen custard with my husband, we went to the hospital at 8 pm to have our baby! After a lot of pushing and then resulting in vacuumming her out, (her heart rate was spiking cause of all the liquid she was swallowing) she was finally born at 3:41am October 1st, 9lbs 2oz and 22 inches long!

Brooklyn held up her head for the first time October 1st around 3pm, and has stolen our hearts since the moment she was born. :)
