Miss Lillian Irene Walsh

Our beautiful baby girl was born yesterday afternoon at 2:42pm! Lillian Irene weighed 6 lbs 10 oz and 19 in long, she is much smaller then we expected! Labor and delivery went very smoothly. I had a few hours of hard labor but once I had my epidural we were smooth sailing. I was already dilated at 3.5 when we checked into the hospital so I knew my contractions that I had been having these past few weeks were doing something!

Lily came out with just four pushes and she was a very calm baby from the start. She has been a very good eater and sleeper, but we will see if that continues once we get home! Leo met her last night and it seemed like he was not interested at all but that is because he had too many new things surrounding him at the hospital...we will see what he is like once we get home and he realizes she is staying with us for good! I think he will be a great big brother and I am so excited to see how the two of them grow together!

Bringing a child into the world is always so precious to me, it is such an amazing thing to do! The emotions that come over you when you see your child for the first time are indescribable and the experience with both with Leo and Lily made me feel so blessed! Being a wife and mother to me is my greatest accomplishment and I hope my husband and children know how much I love them and how blessed I feel to be able to have made this family with Mike. It is a priceless feeling! Can you tell my emotions are on high!?


Leaving for the hospital!

This was taken right as a painful contraction was starting...really!
