Savannah Joy Ward

After my last post, I went into labor that evening...I guess that's what I get for pouring out my sob story...

It's taken me a couple days to feel up to getting the blog updated, but Savannah Joy was born on 3/6/2008 (which was her actual due date!).

I went into labor around 6 pm and she was born right before 6 am. The labor experience this time was much more peaceful and calm. Not so scary... I think delivering at a different hospital was the key! It went much quicker than last time as well. She looks just like Elijah did as a newborn but has TONS more hair...I think if it weren't for the hair, they would practically look the same.

We've been home for 3 days now and doing well. I'm going through the normal emotional ups and downs and recovering fairly quickly with only a few minor bumps in the road. But considering it's only been 3 days, I'm feeling great.

Phil is being such a huge support and my parents have been here to help. Elijah loves to kiss his sister and I think is starting to get used to the fact that she's going to stick around.

I'm encountering an error message every time I try and upload pictures...so they'll have to wait, sorry!!! I'll try again tomorrow.
