Family of Five!

We arrived at the hospital Tuesday morning to have a scheduled c-section at 7:15. Rob and I got there at 5:00. We soon found out we were going to be delayed. Around 10AM we finally got taken back to the OR. Rob got his scrubs on and I was sitting on the operating table. All of the sudden a bunch of people came rushing in and said we needed to move out. They had an emergency c-section that needed the room. So back we went to our room to wait. It 11:26 our bundle finally arrived. She was well worth the wait! Drake and Avery (and grandparents and Uncle Dan) had been patiently waiting since 8AM and were anxious to meet her!


She is Here!



Brooklyn Rae Walker was born September 28th at 11:26. She weighed 7lbs 7oz and was 19 1/4 inches long. She has a lot of dark hair and is just perfect! These are her hospital pictures and she was frowning, but still they turned out pretty cute! We got home on Friday and are just settling in with our new family of 5. We've been blessed with a lot of help from family and friends. We are so very blessed to have a healthy baby (who actually sleeps!). Drake and Avery have been so excited to have "Tootles" here. They do call her Brooklyn which surprises us since she was known as Tootles for so long. Avery wants to kiss her all the time. Drake has held her twice. He gets nervous holding her and wants mom to take her soon. Avery could hold her all day if we let her or until something else catches her attention! We are anxious to show her off to the world! Thankful to God everyday for such a wonderful life!
