So as I mentioned before we expected you early evening, however you had other plans! Mummy wasn’t ready so doctors performed an emergency c-section. Little did I know that within 20 minutes I would be holding you in my arms!
Daddy’s camera was set incorrectly… I do that a lot my sweet… but you’ll soon learn that 🙂
That’s mummy tummy, your arrival is imminent!
<SKIPS BLOODY PART>
Here you are getting your first checkup, minutes after being born! 2 legs, 2 arms and a strong set of lungs! CHECK!
Daddy gets to touch you for the first time! you’ll notice I’m the one with the beard
Daddy gets the honour of cutting your ambicial cord, sort of a tradition I guess? I actually started cutting and then stopped to ask ‘this isn’t going to hurt her is it?’ And if you can’t tell… I’m smiling from ear to ear behind that mask. Oh btw, you had 2 ears as well! 🙂 You’ve probably noticed those things by now.
And Mummy. What a brave young woman, lying there waiting for her little girl to be cleaned. She couldn’t believe her eyes! One moment you were inside kicking and punching her, now she was holding you in her arms. An unbelievable experience. We hope one day that you’ll feel what she felt that day (expect the painful bit of course), make us lots of grand kids!
WELCOME EMILY!!
Mummy & Daddy
