How It All Started........


We found out on May 31st we would be having a little one on New Year's Eve! The pregnancy went well with no complications until week 34. We went in for a regular appointment and ended up on the labor and delivery floor. Our little one was measuring in the 2nd percentile for her gestational age. The doctors wanted to monitor mom and the baby. That was the Wednesday before Thanksgiving.....so Thanksgiving was spent in the hospital as they continued to monitor us. The following Saturday the doctors thought it was best to go ahead and deliver the baby on Sunday. After an attempted induction, a c-section was performed and little Reese was delivered. She was born 5 weeks early weighing 3lbs 1oz and 16 inches long. She spent 3 1/2 weeks in the NICU and came home on the 17th of December. We praise the Lord for His grace during the past 3 1/2 weeks and are so excited about our early Christmas present!
