Today Karla celebrates her first week. It was quite a surprise to meet her so early. Her original due date was February 8th. Her c-section was scheduled for today, January 28th. And she was actually born on January 21st. This makes her 2 1/2 weeks early but our theory is that she was simply trying to avoid everybody else's birthdays. She managed to land on the one day that no one else has claimed. Cute bit of manuevering Karla.
Now for the other list of statistics... she was born at 10:48 in the morning, weighed 6 lbs. 15 oz. and was 19 inches long.
She also seems to have made this surprise amazingly convenient for everyone. I was able to send Megan and Malissa off to school none the wiser. Also John's sister was back from the bus route by the time we were ready to go so Laura had a place to go as well. Our luck held at the hospital as well. It turns out that my surgeon happened to already be at the hospital so we didn't have to wait for him to drive over. Luckily mom and dad were also back from their vacation in Arizona the day before so they drove up on Saturday.
Our little bundle of joy is calling so off I go. It's nice to get back to blogging.
