Gracyn Ashley Hall
Tuesday October 04, 2005
We'll keep adding to the bottom with new sets of pictures. Here's a
quick menu to the various picture sets:
|
|
- Birth - Gracyn came rather suddenly
on April 8, 2004.
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Mommy and Gracyn - April 9th
and 10th.
Christie is showered and changed, a perfect photo op.
|
|
|
- April 10th - April 10th was
filled with friends and family!
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Gracyn was born at 10:54pm on April 8, 2004.
She was 6 pounds, 6 ounces and 20 inches long! Christie's water broke
around 8:00pm and we quickly rushed to the hospital for her c-section....a
little ahead of schedule. She had it scheduled for Monday.

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Get me wrapped up again!! |

Sleeping soundly after a good dinner |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Well, the first day went very well!
Gracyn is nursing great and Christie is feeling better. She was able to get out
of bed and move around a little already.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
"This is my baby sister!" |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
"Where did her mouth go...?" |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
"Hmmm..she feels warm Nanny" |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
"He's still my Daddy too Gracyn!" |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
"Wow...she's really mine..." |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Christie is up out of bed a lot now, and
finally got a chance to shower and get into some cuter clothes. That, of
course, led to more pictures!
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
All dressed up for pictures |
|

Heading to the nursery for a few hospital photos |

We spent much of this day getting into the
routine of things. Brandon came and visited his little sister, still being
sweet as ever. We had a few visitors: Chris, Sharon, and Aidan Albury swung by
for a little while. Beth, Dan and Peter Cotell also came by.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
"I love this little girl!" |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
"Can we take her home yet?" |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Easter was met with excitement as we knew we
were going home with Gracyn! We were finally discharged around 1:30pm.
Our next door neighbors invited Brandon to an Easter Egg Hunt...he found a bunch
of candy eggs and then ran back home to his little sister (and the tractor)!
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
These next few are great! |

And so did my little girl! |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Gracyn has spent most of her first few days at
home sleeping...she's a very laid back baby who rarely cries at all. She
even seemed to enjoy her first bath!
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
"I can still fit in here!" |
|

That's definitely a smile! |

First bath at home...she didn't cry at all! |
|

Gracyn wasn't too happy about her first doctor's appt! |
|

Her face kept getting covered up by the blanket. |
