Annemarie Audrey joined our family on June 19th at 8:11 am.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The nurse brought Annie over to me and let me hold her while we were still in the operating room. It was the first time I was able to hold one of our kids before Dave.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a> \"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The kids were all super excited to meet their new little sister. Luke asked if he could hold Annie as soon as he saw her.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Maggie insisted throughout my pregnancy that the baby was a girl. We tried to prepare her in case she ended up with another brother, but it turned out she was right all along.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a> \"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Unfortunately Annie had a little bit of trouble with her breathing. Her respiratory rate was too high. After a chest x-ray and a consultation with the local children’s hospital, they decided to transport her to the NICU there.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a> \"\"<\/a> \"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Annie was not a fan of being hooked up to all the monitors and pulled out her nasal cannula several times (feisty girl) and later her IV too.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Thankfully they were able to get everything sorted out (they are pretty sure it was all caused by too much fluid in her lungs) and Annie and I ended up getting discharged on the same day. Dave actually drove to the children’s hospital and picked up Annie and \u00a0then the two of them came to get me.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a> \"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

So the two of us came home together.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Here are some more pics from Annie’s first (almost) two weeks.<\/p>\n
