YAWN! She's still pretty tired from "the move"...BUT


Happy baby day to ME! I'm sure I'll end up composing some sort of birth story, it will be long winded and clever, I imagine. But for now, my sit-upon has me limited to short stints - so I will post the vitals...

Coby was born March 19th at 4:58 p.m.



She weighed a heaping 8 pounds, 4 oz (beating the "CHowie" record by nearly a pound, who beat the previous Kiersten birth weigh-in record by nearly a pound)
21 inches long (and did I mention she's thick? Just look at that neck!)

So for now, I'm just going to get used to this whole "burping" thing...but the good news is - no matter how much she wakes up at night - I still get more sleep than I did when I was pregnant! Yippeeeeeee!

Either way, she wakes you up. At least now your body doesn't have to hurt (well, in a few days anyway). Big thick babies make great (and skinny) teenagers, I've found... LOL (knock on wood)
