Right before we left for the hospital!
Lauren Angela Haight was born on Thursday, December 15, 2011 at 5:35 pm. I knew she would be delivered via c-section because I had full placenta previa, which means the placenta was blocking the birth canal. Most women with placenta previa have to go on bed rest or have other complications, but I was really lucky to not have any complications.
Lauren weighed 6 lbs 11 oz and she was 18 1/2 inches long. I was surprised to see that she had some hair, and it was darker then Patrick's when he was born. She was a beautiful, sweet baby from the very beginning. Right away she was eating well and sleeping fairly regularly. She loved to snuggle and sleep on my chest.

Grandma and Grandpa Haight brought Patrick to meet Lauren the day after she was born. We had talked to him a lot about his baby sister, so he was quite excited to meet her. Just as we thought, he was really excited for about five minutes, and then he just wanted to play with all the buttons on the hospital bed. As a big brother, he has been sweet, loving, and very much in love with his little sister. He loves to hold her and give her kisses.
