Dawn in Ohio Posted July 10, 2008 Posted July 10, 2008 I have good news to share! Our baby Margaret Grace was born on June 24th. She is such a sweet, delightful baby. We are all enjoying her. And if anyone read my post where I was worried about my parents visit to "help" after baby came... everything went great. My mom didn't plan great meals or clean my house. But I was able to relax and enjoy our time together and not stress about the mess. For me, that was a huge accomplishment. My parents spent a lot of time playing games with the kids, reading to them, taking them to the park, etc. That made thing easier for me and made it a fun, special time for my kids. I can't figure out how to put an image in my post. There are some pictures of Grace at our family blog: http://joelduff.blogspot.com/ Quote

jmgconner Posted July 10, 2008 Posted July 10, 2008 What a precious baby girl! Congratulations! Quote
Dawn in Ohio Posted July 11, 2008 Author Posted July 11, 2008 Danestress- I love that picture of Elijah and Graham too. The expression on Elijah's face is so cute. Another Lynn- Congratulations on the birth of your little girl! Kelli- Dh thought that picture of solitaire on the laptop was hillarious. :) He was playing solitaire and preparing a lecture for one of his classes and checking stocks and such. We also watched a movie and played sudoku and walked many laps around labor and delivery. I was induced and it took a long time to get things going. Then I got an epidural and was pretty comfortable. I didn't need too much moral support until the last few minutes. Quote
