Well, she's here! Sevyn Cherise Christensen! She was born on February 17th, 2009 and weighed 8lbs 8oz and was 21inches long! Despite her size, it turns out she was early and spent her first 36 hours of life in the NICU because she couldn't breathe on her own. Her lungs didn't make a hormone needed to inflate them for the first time. She's all better now - And she is totally awesome!
The morning of February 17th was not like any other morning we've ever had!Here are the pics from it!
At this moment, I am cut openand have no clue! C-Sections are the greatest invention ever!
Here's our baby! Lookin good right off the starting block.
One of our nurses took all of the O.R. pictures - she got some great ones!
Here is Sevyn getting all weighed in and measured. Can you believe she is a new-be in this pic?
I know we are her parents but come on - you've never seen such a good looking kid 2 minutes out of mom!
Our first family picture...What a feeling! I think in addition to falling in love with Sev, I fell even deeper in love with Nathan - It's the craziest moment!
This was right before the took her into the NICU - I was a bit of a wreck for a little bit...I didn't get to see her for way too long after this. She did however get in some great daddy time. I was thankful for that!
And so, those are the first few moments of Sevyn's life and our new family's life!
