Feb-March 2011

One of the teens at Gen's childcare taught her, "You got it dude".

Got a pedicure, asked for a baby related design like a rattle or something. 

This is what I got.  Too funny.

 2/7/2011 - Morning of Alexandra's birth.

 Getting prepped for the C-Section.

 Alexandra Zoey Willwerth was born on  February 7, 2011.
 She weighed 6 lbs,  15 oz. and was 18.5" long.

 The doctor said she only had one tougher C-Section.  There was lots of scar tissue and organs were not where they were supposed to be.  They said it's a good thing she didn't go into labor and end up with an unscheduled c-section because it would have been much rougher, and probably would have involved a general surgeon to help repair other organs.

 Genevieve was so excited to hold baby Alexandra.  She's a great big sister already!

 First time home.

 My girls.

 We love the double stroller!

 Spring break, we spend a lot of time at the mall.  Gen loves the carousel at the Supermall.

 Gen and Sebi went to the horse races to see She's My Favorite train.

 These cousins love each other!

The due date of January 29th is almost a week away.  As we get closer to baby Alexandra's arrival we grow more and more excited.  We all can't wait to meet her.  Sure Chad and I have a few things that need to get square away at work first but we'll be ready by the 29th.  Hopefully Alex can hold off just a little bit longer!  I have felt better lately than I have ever felt this entire pregnancy.  Sure I'm a little tired and have a sore throat that doesn't want to go away, but I'm just happy I'm not nauseous anymore.  The Gestational Diabetes seems to be managed well but I am looking forward not having to poke myself 4 times a day.  It is so surreal that our family is going to have a new member.  I have cherished the time that we have had we Genevieve as an only child, but I am looking forward to the new adventures we will have baby Alex as well.

December

The holidays have come and gone way too fast!  Tom and Jean came and visited.  Although Genevieve was shy at first, it didn't take long for her to warm up to them.  It was great having them visit.  Genevieve also enjoyed spending time with all her cousins this Christmas.
