Norah Ryann


Here is Baby Norah, born Aug 4th 2009 weighing 8lbs 15oz and 21.5 inches long. She came after 5 1/2 hours of labor at 8:30am and is adjusting well to Oregon life with mom dad and grandma Wilkinson. Already, just week home, we have discovered her interest in soccer(her new "stuffed animal"), bathtime-possibly motivated after watching Phelps on t.v, loves eating-not so much spicy food though and her pink fluffy throne/chair for sleeping. Mommy is healing, after getting many stitches..but she is proud to still maintain the "waddle" to say she successfully did a natural birth-as she said she would do (if it would have been a longer labor she would have done the epidural though, that was painful :)
We love the fun Norah brings and are excited to see what is in store for the next few weeks.

Congrats! I had been thinking she should be here by now. Sounds like you have babies a lot like I do (big and quickly) only I have always gotten the epidural. Good luck with the recovery, stitches are the worst.
