Welcome Baby Smiley!

Well I have finally found an opportunity to sit down and begin to catch up on life, e-mails, phone calls, and house work. Pretty much anything outside of sleeping and eating has been neglected over these past 2 weeks due to the anticipated arrival and the OFFICIAL arrival of Baby Smiley.

After 2 long days of failed induction attempts Tatum Smiley arrived via c-section on Wednesday, October 17th at 7:31 am weighing 7 pounds 14 ounces and measuring in at 20 inches. She was 10 days past her due date so her arrival was met with great joy and excitement. Since Mike was not able to be here in Maine, my mom was at my side throughout the entire process of both the induction and the c-section. After a few more nights in the hospital we brought Tatum home on Saturday, October 20th. Since coming home Tatum has been a joy to have around and she has a wonderful personality.

Just a few minutes old

Going home for the first time
