Taliese Grace!!

Sorry it's taken so long!!! SHE IS HERE!!! She made her grand entrance on Monday Nov 15th at 9:44am. Coming in at 7lbs 15.5 oz (isn't that an 8 lb baby??.... I thought we round up at 5) and 19 1/2 in. length! She came so fast, I didn't have time to do anything... I went from walking in to the hospital dilated at a 3.. ready to be induced and they gave me a pill to soften my cervix and after they broke my water ( I was still at a 3) I had her 1 1/2 hrs later. She came so fast I didn't have any drugs or anything again!!It was so crazy, I had the nurses in a panic because she was coming out and no one was ready!! hahahaha Welcome Taliese!!













Her poor little face was all bruised and so was her arms!! She came so fast she must had hit every bump and bone on the way out!! It was so sad!









First day home with sister!

When we were discharged from the hospital she had jaundice so we had to keep her in a light box get get rid of it!! It was so hard, we could only take her out for feedings and diaper changes. She was supposed to stay in there as much as possible!! SO HARD!! Good thing if only lasted 2 days then we were all done!

You look soooo good Melonie!!! Taya and her new sister do look a lot alike. I know how you feel about the light box. After being home 2 days with Saedy when she was born, we had to go back and be admitted in the hospital for another two days while she stayed under the lights. It was kind of sad, but I guess there are worse things! Glad you are all doing great now!
