Stella Mae Soelberg

IV and monitors ... ready to go!

N&B ... while I was still waiting for the hard stuff to happen.





After 6 hours of hard labor ... 2 hours of hard labor off-set by the epidural ... 
and 45 minutes of pushing ...

STELLA MAE SOELBERG was born!
Tuesday October 4, 2011
7:05pm
7 lb 14.8 ounces
19 inches

mom and stella about an hour after her birth ... needless to say I am tired.

N&B with STELLA!  Our first family photo!

she loves to suck on her hands ... just as I saw time and time again in the womb!




with Grandpa David ... grandchild number 11!

proud papa ... Nate is such a good dad and loves his baby girl

chubby cheeks ... just like i ordered





(sorry for the cleavage)

since she was a GD baby we thought she might be bigger ... so NONE of her clothes fit her yet (sorry for the cleavage)

momma and baby ... i LOVE this girl beyond words

grandpa always has a statement to make

thinking hard as we leave the hospital (sorry again with the cleavage)


BIRTH STORY DETAILS COMING IN THE NEAR FUTURE
