On February 27th, 2008, Tiana made her grand debut at 6:29 pm. She weighed in at 7 lbs, 10 oz and was 21 1/2 inches long. (Not bad for being two days overdue.) She is a healthy baby and we have all been taking the last 5 months adjusting to our already chaotic lives. She is such a blessing, I can't believe I have a baby?! I can't believe she's a GIRL!!!!! I spent the first few weeks staring at her in amazement and I kept saying, "Oh my God, you're a girl! How did that happen? You're a girl! I can't believe you're a girl!" I would call my mom and say, "It's a girl, can you believe I have a girl?" Even now, 5 months later I am still awed by the fact that she is a girl and she is mine/ours! The boys have been absolutely wonderful with her and Daddy is tickled pink! :)
Speaking of pink, it has been so much fun shopping in the girl sections of all of the stores. My mom and I have been having a blast. (Josh has even gotten in on picking out a few outfits for his baby sister. Just don't tell anyone.) Scott tells everyone that my mom's credit card companies have been sending her thank you cards for spending so much money on the baby. :) For the first time in my life, I get to play dress up with a real baby girl and I am absolutely LOVING it! My mom keeps teasing me saying that for someone who didn't really enjoy playing with dolls, I am having way too much fun. I have to agree with that, I am having way too much fun. Thank God for this little miracle!
