I'm back with a BABY!

Hi everyone, Sorry I haven't been on in a few days, I've been a bit busy. Thanks to everyone who has called, texted or emailed me, I'm sorry if I haven't gotten back with you. We were able to bring the baby home from the hospital yesterday after a 48 hour stay. Oh, for those of you that don't know, she also has a name--Kendall Elizabeth Orf. I think it has a good ring to it. I still am kinda in shock that I had a girl! There goes that mother's intuition. All my dreams I had were that I was having a boy, pretty much everyone thought I was having a boy. We sure were all wrong!!! I guess the old wive's tale of a high heartbeat being a girl panned out this time! A girl will be fun though. Jason is already joking about putting me on a weekly allowance cuz he's afraid I'm gonna spend a bunch of money. U probably want to know more about the little one. She was 6 lbs, 1 oz, 19.5 inches when she was born. She has some hair. Overall, she's doing really well. It was a bit frustrating last nite cuz I think she already has her days and nights mixed up. She had a couple screaming spells and we didn't know what was wrong with her. I think she's still hungry after we feed her cuz she continues to do the little "bird mouth" thing. Jason and I took turns getting up cuz she eats every 3 hrs. She's been sleeping pretty much all day today though. She can be a bit fussy at times. We also introduced her to our dog, Rascal. He's been pretty good with her so far but she also hasn't had a screaming spell yet. So we'll see. I'll maybe have to write up a little birth story in the near future. Feel free to check my friend's, Nikki and Gretchen's blog for some pics of the little one. U can just click on their names on the right side of the page.
