Welcome

The day has finally come!  My beautiful daughter, Bianca Belle, was born on Wednesday, January 8th at 9:17am.  She weighed 6 pounds, 9 ounces and was 18.5 inches long.

The original plan was to be induced at 6:30am on the 8th (which was her actual due date) but I actually went into labor naturally the night before.  It's not very often that you have your baby on your due date, but much like momma, she's never late to an occasion :)

Bianca is the most beautiful baby and she's been such a wonderful girl so far.  While I get up several times a night to feed her, she doesn't actually keep me up all night (yet).  Not only did I have a really short labor and delivery, I also have a great baby.  I feel like the luckiest mom in the world!
