Welcome to the world Avery!!!

Avery Vianne


"Can we keep her?" This is what I said at 8:56pm on thurs June 26th 2008 at Bryn Mawr Hospital when the most beautiful person ever entered my world!!! At exactly 37 weeks, my water broke at 4:30am and after 6 hrs of being induced, several more hours of laboring, 50 min of pushing, and a few other odds & ends we welcomed Avery Vianne into the world!! She weighed 6lbs 13oz and 20in long. She immediately grabbed onto our fingers and we were smitten! The hospital was busy that day - 28 people on the maternity ward and 9 deliveries, mine being the final. We had a wonderful delivery experience, my husband was a real trooper (his snacks came in handy) and our delivery nurse & doctor were excellent! It was very relaxed, we told stories & joked during the final phase. The staff had no problem putting my husband to work as the floor was busy and short staffed. Enjoy these pictures - more to come!!!
