piper is here!!

we arrived at the hospital a little before 8 a.m. monday morning, april 13.

then, we found out our little girl had flipped and was heads up - leading to an unexpected c-section. christi was a trooper and did great. piper arrived at 2:41 p.m. monday, april 13th.
7lbs. 15 oz. and 20.5 inches long. plenty of hair with a distinct reddish tint...

charlie really likes his new sisiter- they should be close, as they will be less than 2 yrs. apart. charlie doesn't turn 2 until the end of may!
he always greets her with a very bright "h-i-i-i-i, pipe-urrrr!!!"
then he usually follows it with "luv ooo, pipe - urrrr"

strawberry blonde...

a proud big brother...

sleeping sweetly (we'll see how long that lasts...)
