At 8:34, Taylor Marie entered the world as a feisty, spunky baby, all full of energy. She is alert, smart, adorable and all ours! I simply cannot believe it. She weighs in at 6 lbs. 8 oz. and 19 in. long. You can't see it in this picture (I'll upload more later) but she has a full head of dark, curly hair, chubby cheeks and adorable little fingers and toes that I can't stop kissing.
Kristin couldn't have an epidural, so I learned just how strong and brave she is, even though she kept saying "I'm done being brave." She really was so brave! I love her so much.
I'll post more pictures later, and maybe even a video. Thank you all for your prayers. Mom and baby are doing great!

April 18, 2009 at 1:08 PMI got a little teary eyed reading this. I love when babies our born, especially the first. Kristin, you are AMAZING!!! I can barely handle the pain till the epidural comes. Now you are one of the few who truly know what it's like. Good for you! Congrats on your precious little girl.

April 20, 2009 at 12:17 PMMy wife couldn't have an epidural with our second child. He came mercifully quickly.
That's a VERY cute baby you have there. Welcome to parenthood.
Holy cow--she is so cute! Seriously. Some people have ugly babies and you can't say that, but Taylor is so DARLING! How fun! I'm really excited for you two!
April 21, 2009 at 9:12 PMYou two have a beautiful baby girl. I just want to smooch her little, round baby face. Let us know when her blessing day will be.
