Megan is here!!

Well, our little gal finally joined our eager family. Megan Anne Hardy was born on August 10 @ 2:52pm. She weighed 7 lbs. 14 oz. and was only 18 1/2 inches. She has blue eyes (and we think they will stay that way) and very unique hair. We are not exactly sure of the color. There is some blonde, red, and brown in it. We are anxious to see what color it turns.
Here are some other details surrounding Megan's arrival. I went into labor very early Sunday morning. When she came into the world she was not crying, or breathing well on her own. They put her on a pulse/ox. monitor and put her in an oxygen tent for the first 16 hours of her life. I was not allowed to hold or feed her during that time. Even after they took her out of the "bubble" she still had to be hooked up to the monitor.

She still does not cry much but she is healthy and home. She did have to stay until Wednesday, even though I was discharged on Tuesday. Her brothers are really enjoying her being home. Even (especially) Joshua, whom we worried would be jealous, loves his sister.



Amazingly, we all went to church with Megan only a week old. I loved putting her in her first Sunday dress. She is so beautiful!!

Well, I am really loving my baby girl. I was so scared to think about bringing another baby into our family, but I know the Lord has blessed us in a way I never could have imagined. He does know best!!
