my beautiful baby girl, madeleine frances johnson was born Saturday, August 30th at 9:50 am... she was 8 lbs, 1 oz and 19 1/2 inches long.
at a doctor's appointment the day before, we were getting a little worried because she was still showing no signs of coming. after a non-stress test at the hospital, we figured out why - she was breech! oh no! so she came via c-section saturday morning. everything went well, and we're both doing much better.
it's likely my fluid level was too low for her to turn, and the poor girl was very squashed with her head jammed under my ribs and her feet squashed underneath her. but she's enjoying her ability to stretch out now!
she's SO adorable. and she's such a good baby :) she's very alert and was wide-eyed and interested from the moment she was born, and even hours later when i finally got to hold her for the first time. those baby blue-eyes are so beautiful!
she of course enjoys long naps :) and loves walks outside, and she makes the cutest baby squeaks you've ever heard!
here are all 5 generations of women - madeleine, me, my mother, my grandmother, and great-great-grandma frances eloise, from whom maddie gets her middle name.i'm off to give some love to my new baby girl...but i'll post more adorable photos soon :)
