As you probably guessed by now, I had my baby! I know I owe you all the details and pictures and everything, but things have been absolutely crazy. Between finishing up the sale of our house and moving and having to go back to the dr’s office for check ups, I haven’t gotten much rest.
BUT - both baby and I are doing fine, and, for now, here is the “short story” - just the stats.
It finally happened! Our “surprise” baby arrived safely on November 9th at 6:14 am. Baby weighed 7lbs 5.8oz and was 20 inches long. My previous heaviest was my son at 6lbs 8.3oz, so this baby was quite a bit heavier than my others. In fact, this baby’s birth weight is over a pound more than all the older sister’s birth weights.
Oh yes, and of course, the answer to the question everyone was asking…..It’s a girl!
She’s beautiful and we’re both doing well even though we haven’t been getting as much rest as I’d like.
Will share my birth story and pictures soon.

Congratulations! Wow, that baby is in the range of my baby’s birth weights. My smallest was 6 lbs 11 oz, and biggest was 7 lbs 13 oz.
I am so happy for you. Blessings!

Congrats Stacie!
We are headed your way but not until the spring - the kids and I are doing an extended vacation visiting family - but you can bet I’ll be contacting you for info about the island! LOL
