Camille

Our little Camille arrived last Friday, the 17th.  We are in love!  After cleaning my house like a mad woman the day before, I started going into labor that night.  We had a scheduled time to be induced early Friday morning.  I guess I would have shown up that day either way.  
So we arrived at our scheduled time and got checked in and all set up in our room.  It was the same room that Brett was born in.  Pretty cool!  After things progressed and I had my epidural (I hate getting them, but I love having them!) it didn't take much longer for Camille to come at 1:20 that afternoon.  She came so easily, it was awesome!  She weighed 8 lb 4 oz and was 21 inches long.  
My delivery nurse was amazing!  She was fun and supportive and I wish I could have brought her home with me too!



Grant and Brett came to see us that night.  They'd had a big day of fun at Grandma & Grandpa Jackson's house and so Brett was tuckered out before he got to the hospital.  Lucky for him he got to come back over the next morning with my parents and then he got to meet Camille.
Grant was so excited to see baby Camille.  And I was so excited to see how much he'd love her.  And he loves her a lot!

 "Hey everybody!  I'm going home now!"
Brett's eyes were so big and excited when he saw that Camille had come home with us.
 It wasn't long before things like this pink monster truck started showing up next to her.
It was nice to have a long weekend due to Martin Luther King Day.  Here we are with our beautiful flag as we caught the last few minutes of sunshine for the day.
 Keith has been helping a lot.  I'm so glad he get's paternity leave!!!  Camille loves him!  And she loves to hold onto his fingers.
I caught the boys peeking through the window to see their sister while they were playing outside one day.
 She is a cutie!  I think we'll keep her!
