We were so happy when Tessa decided to join us, one week early, on a Saturday evening, at the most convenient time possible! She started out wonderful and has stayed that way! I actually have written her birth story in my old fashioned pen and paper journal, so this post will mostly be pictures.
Short story: We arrived at the hospital at 5:30 pm after feeling contractions on and off in the morning, and then more steady in the afternoon while we went for a brisk 45 minute walk to move things along. Grandparents Lamont met us there and took Macy and Rachel. Tessa was born at 9:07 pm, 8 lbs 1 oz, 21 in, 10 fingers, 10 toes, and totally perfect!
Sunday morning my friends Leslie and Natasha visited, and Grandparents Lamont with Macy and Rachel.
The girls were SO excited. When we told Macy the day before we were leaving to the hospital to have the baby she screamed for joy! When they came and met Tessa Rachel kept saying 'cute, cute'. To this day they have loved Tessa and been go great and gentle with her. Both love to hold her and make her smile and laugh. I'm excited for the adventures these three sisters will have!
This last one is at home and she is only a week old, but so bright eyed and beautiful!
