Madelyn's here!

3.22.2011

Madelyn Joy McCarty is here!  She came into our world at 6pm on Sunday March 20th and weighed 5 lbs. 4 oz. and 19 inches in length.  Tim and I are definitely smitten with our little girlie!! 

Our baby girl!
My labor process went really quickly!  I did most of the laboring at home Sunday morning and then left for the hospital that afternoon.  Once we got there it only took about 3 1/2 hours until Madelyn was out!! 
The doctor had us stay an extra day to make sure her temperature didn't drop too low.  We had several visitors yesterday and were able to get a good night's rest last night. 
We ended up bringing our baby girl home this afternoon.  Things are going well so far! =)

Here are some pictures from the last three days:
