Well, I saw this weekend going a little differently, but God's plans aren't always your own plans. We showed up bright-eyed and bushy-tailed on Friday morning for the induction. I started pitocin at 6 that morning. 26 Hours later my doctor and I decided that it would be best to go ahead and have a c-section. He was afraid she was going to be too big for me to deliver and I was pretty exhausted at that point. 39 minutes later at 8:39 a.m. we were blessed with a happy and healthy little girl. Harper Ann came into the world weighing in at 8 lbs. 6 oz. and was 19 inches long.
We are pretty smitten to say the least and cannot thank God enough for blessing us with her healthy arrival. Holt has met her, but I think was a little overwhelmed by all the people and the hospital thing, that he didn't really grasp what was going on. We are so thankful for all of our friends and family who have been so willing to help out and have been praying for us. We are so thankful for our Church family who has been in prayer for us over the past nine months and has shared in our joy and excitement. Our families have taken care of Holt and loving cousins have decorated our hospital room with flowers. Joey and Lisa came by and brought an awesome diaper cake to the room. I will post more photos later, until then enjoy photos of our newest addition. We are absolutely in love and can't wait for everyone to meet her.

She looks just like an angel
