Reagan Marie is here!

Reagan is finally here! Although I must say, this pregnancy went by so quickly. The first trimester was between the end of school and beginning of student teaching, the second trimester was student teaching and the third trimester began with graduation. This was a quick pregnancy for many of you reading this due to our not telling for so long.
 
 
 
Us at the hospital Monday morning, July 30 at 7:15. We arrived a family of 3.

We're happy and excited to meet Reagan!


While Landry was there for a little bit she watched the Disney channel.


 
I played Words with Friends and...

Brad checked the weather for the week. We were a little warm, just a little.
 
Pitocin was started at 8:48 that morning. Noon rolled around and I was 5 centimeters dilated. Dr. Bailey came around 3:30 and broke my water. Boy did that get things going. Things progressed so quickly that Liz, my labor and delivery nurse, almost delivered Reagan. Dr. Bailey literally walked in, into her smock/robe, held her hands out and caught Reagan at 6:28 that evening!
 
Hello Reagan Marie Johnston.

 
Brad and I had a few hours with Reagan by ourselves before Landry came to the hospital to meet her new baby sister.
 
 
Landry immediately loved Reagan.

Landry enjoyed holding Reagan and being all together as a family. She spent Monday night at Mrs. Joanne's house and Tuesday night in the hospital with us.
 
 
We left Wednesday around noon, a family of 4.



Landry couldn't wait to call a friend to share that her baby sister had been born.

 
 
Reagan does alot of this.
 
 
 
 
 
She does wake up here and there.

 
 
 
 
Landry and Daddy gave Reagan her first bath at home.

 
 
 
 
Landry was very gentle and caring.

 
 
 
 
Sweet baby.
 
 
 
 
Sisterly love.

 
 
 
 
Landry even likes holding Reagan. Reagan likes being in her big sister's arms.
 
 
 
 
Good morning!
