She's here!!

Madelyn Grace Biederman entered the world on Wednesday, June 27th at 7:26 in the morning. Because she was born by c-section, we needed to stay in the hospital until Friday. Baby, Mom, and Dad are doing great...everyone is healthy and wonderful! Madelyn sure is a tiny little thing, she was born at 7 lbs 3oz. She has already lost a little weight as all newborns do in their first couple of days of life, but there are no concerns as she has been a hearty eater from the start. Soon after we returned to our room with Madelyn, she fed and was bathed by Dad and the nurse. Maddie seemed to love her first bath and Dad promises that that will be his job at home as well. Here is another shot of Maddie with her daddy; It was such a blessing in the hospital to have both of our families around to help celebrate as well as many friends stop and meet the newest addition to our family.

Here's Grandpa G and CC with their first little grand-daughter;

Here are Papa and Mimi with their 3rd grand-daughter (after having three boys, they sure are enjoying all the girls in the family now!!)

Of course it was so difficult to pick out just a few snapshots of Maddie for the blog...so here are just a couple more of my favorites!! And of course, we'll update soon.

And lastly...here are the proud parents about to bring Madelyn home from the hospital!! Yay!

Tomorrow!!

24 hours from now...We'll be able to hold our little girl! We are so excited, please keep us in your prayers for a smooth and healthy birth. Look for pictures of our new addition this weekend!

The final countdown...

I can't believe my pregnancy is coming to an end. The months have flown by and my stomach just keeps on growing. My favorite part about the pregnancy has easily been all of the little movements I've been feeling over the last couple of months. The little kicks and headbobs have been so neat and hard to believe that a little person is growing in there! My very least favorite part of the pregnancy has been the extreme swelling that I have experienced. My feet are like sausages and I haven't been able to wear my wedding rings for almost 3 months now! Though my pregnancy has been fairly easy, despite the swelling, Kurt and I are very ready to meet our little one!

A little update for those of you who are not aware, Madelyn is in a breech position and therefore we are scheduled for a c-section 1 week before my due date. Unless, Maddie decides to do a last minute flip, we will be having her on June 27th! Yes...that is less than three weeks away!!!!

Here are some shots of her room...it is quickly becoming Kurt and my favorite room in the house. The chair is so soft and comfy!
