0 days to go

We PROUDLY introduce Miss Alison Jeanne Grooters. Born at 5:53am this morning. She was 6 lbs. 8oz. and still haven't heard a length on her for sure.

We are all doing well...I feel pretty great considering I had a c-section a few hours ago. Alison is 3 1/2 weeks early so did well and we got to hold her for a few seconds of pictures in the operating room, but then was having some issues with breathing. She is now comfortable in the NICU here at Holland Hospital and being closely monitored. They are also going to be keeping a close eye on her feeding.

Here are a few pics....I'll add the whole story + updates soon hopefully!
