Izabelle was born on Tuesday at 5:39. We went in in the morning and got hooked up on the pit and IV's. I got to a 6 pretty quick and then stopped for a few hours because she was posterior and didn't want to turn. I flipped from side to side trying to get her to move, but she waited until she was good and ready to turn and once she did she came right away. Everything went really well and she was 6lbs 4 oz. 19.5 inches long. She has a ton of dark hair, none of the pictures really show it, but it is down her neck and over her ears, it is so cute. I hope she doesn't lose it all. With all of the new rules we had 1-2 visitors at a time that night, then Justin went home to sleep with the boys. He came back in the morning to spend the day with me & Izabelle until we could be discharged. We went to get the boys from my parents so they could meet their sister and we could all go home. It has been an adjustment the past few days, but the boys adore her and have done really well. We are hoping she won't have anymore jaundice problems after tomorrow's appointment and we can get rid of the lights and not have any other extra Dr. appts. We have had lots of great help from the family. I think the boys are loving that they get to do fun things while I sit at home with the baby. Justin has been fantastic, he has been putting the boys to bed and helping out with everything. We are so happy that UPS is over!! Things are great and we are loving having Izabelle in our family. She is perfect!

Dyllan loves his baby sister, he just can't quite get her name right. I think he was hooked on Cinderella so he calls her Izabella. One day he'll drop the A.
I never thought I would love having a girl so much!
Dyllan meeting his new sister for the first time. He was so excited and just wanted to hold her. Peyton was asleep, so he didn't meet her until later when we got home.
We were getting pretty bored waiting for discharge on Wednesday so Justin & Izabelle took a snooze.
All dressed and ready to go home!
She definitely has a high pitched girly scream.
Our beautiful little girl!
Just after her bath, a couple hours old.
Brand new meeting mom
She took her sweet time turning so I got a good nap in.
