Firoza Kate

Firoza was born May 11, Aunt Brooke's Birthday! I woke up that morning and went downstairs and the time on the microwave was 5:11 and I thought how cool it would be to have our baby on 5/11/11. Then around 10:30 I popped (literally, there was a big almost painful pop in my tummy followed by lots of gushing). We got to the hospital about an hour later. I went through two diapers at home and was wearing two diapers when we got to the hospital and still leaked a bit before I got to triage. I can't believe how big I was from this picture!
Of course we didn't know she was a girl so it was exciting to finally find out! We couldn't have been happier.
I thought she cleaned up pretty well :)
Jehan is a great big brother but took a little while to adjust. I think he didn't know what to do with her at first.
Here are some pictures comparing our kids!

This is Jehan...
and Firoza,

Jehan is first (without hair) and Firoza follows (with hair)





We were so happy to have her home! We only stayed at the hospital one day and I'm glad we did :) Her bilirubin was a little high so we put her by windows and fed her some formula the first day home. She was fine by the next day when we had her tested again.


I love this picture. It proves that she used to sleep!
