Sorry not to have posted in a while but we've been busy. Please welcome Madelyn Elizabeth, the latest production from Allen & Lisa.
Born on August 8th, 3:04 PM at a very healthy 8 pounds, 4 ounces & 21.5 inches. There was plenty of drama and action - Cord Prolapse! Emergency C-Section! Whoa, put the Gooey Oompa Loompa back in! Dad cuts the cord!
There was some comedy too - me dressed in scrubs and mask, fumbling for a camera to take the first picture (used my cell phone), and poor Lisa numbed up and loopy from all manner of drugs just along for the ride.
And now the whirl wind has swept us away from the hospital to the comforts of home. Our dog Jack is not sure what to make of the newcomer, but he's being good. Sniffing, whining, running in circles, jumping on everyone, following us (and Maddy) everywhere we go. The cat is pretty unfazed by the whole affair.
Our first night was uneventful and unpredictable. Just when we thought Maddy was on a feeding schedule, she shook things up with a two hour nap, snarfing down a bottle and then zonking out for four hours, up again for a bottle and out again for another four hours. Which leads us to this post.
OK, keep those cards and letters coming, and join us for the next episode of "Maddy The Jungle Girl" or "The Naked Maddy Band" or how about...
