After 12 hours of a "semi-easy" labor, our sweet little Hallie was born.
It seemed to have taken forever to progress, untill I was dialated to a 6 1/2....then within a half hour I was a 10 and ready to push....5 minutes later, we had a beautiful baby girl!
Hallie was born Monday morning at 3:38. She weighed 7 lbs. 11 oz. and was 20 1/2 in.
I immediately felt a strong bond, and a sense of protection for Hallie. I guess because she's my little GIRL.
Hallie's proud grandparents. # 17 on the Atwood side and the Johnson's 11th grandchild.
Isn't she precious....It's amazing how much LOVE you can feel for somebody else. We are so happy to have her in our family. Noah's a little curious to what's going on, but he seems to be handling things just fine. He's spent lots of time with his grandparents--which he loves.

She is so beautiful!! Congratulations! I miss having a brand new one in my home. There is a spirit that is so special that you only have with a brand new baby. I don't know how anyone could question if there really is a God. I am so happy for you. I hope she gets a sleeping schedule soon. That always makes for happy parents. :)
