A GIRL!

Dag was totallly right! He told us that he had a feeling I was going to give birth to a girl. Meanwhile everyone else was saying this baby would be a boy! I thought I would have a girl in early pregnancy but then with the "slow heart rate" etc I was convinced she would be a he. GOOD GOING DAG!
The wee bairn was born viia emergency c-section doon in Aberdeen 'cause the baby was in distress but hey, all that matters is that SHE is here safe and sound!

Our wee little Elspeth is now blessing our home and completing our marriage and we are soooo happy!

She came out (through my belly) a plump 8lbs and she looks just like I did as a young baby! We can't wait to see if she takes on some of her father's features and if she ends up with blue eyes or brown eyes??

Elspeth was born the same day that my mom died three years ago. She's my mom's first grandchild... I totally see the hand of God at work here! He's used this baby's birth to not only bless us but also to give a beautiful twist to that awful day of mom's death. A double blessing! God is so good.

I'm doing well! Sore but on my feet doing this and that as I putter around the house. Erlend is helping tons so there's nothing to worry about ~ I'm not trying to do it all on my own! Ok, gotta run because who knows how long Elspeth will stay asleep before she howls for a diaper change or more milk?? hehehehe! I have that haggard death-warmed-over look of the mother of a newborn!!!

Will post pics later once we figure out how to download them ~ and once Erlend catches up on farm work. I was hospitalized for ten days because the pubis symphasis totally crippled me once I went into labor on the 24th and I stayed crippled for some time after the birth.

Doing good now!! Pubis symphasis is still around but I can sit down on our livingroom chairs and sleep much more comfortably.

I had posted about beign in early labor on the 24th but for some reason it's still processing? So this news is kinda coming out of left field and I hope it gets posted today.

YAY!!! Our baby is here! Now if only I could get some sleep hehehehehe
