Lori Jane Fitzgerald

Lori Jane Fitzgerald made her entry into the world yesterday at 5:49 PM. She weighed in at eight pounds, seven ounces and is 19&1/2 inches long. She is beautiful! She has a light dusting of brown hair and blue eyes (so far) and a little round face with rosy cheeks.

I went up to visit her today and got to hold her, soothe her, sing to her and pat her bottom and sway with her. She stayed awake, followed moving objects with her eyes, hic-upped and soiled her panties! She was very calm and engaged while doing it all. I got to change her, and swaddle her and get her ready for lunch. Amanda was all freshened up and back in bed after she and the nurse had a trip to the bathroom. Amanda looks great, tired and proud.

Lori Jane had on a tiny pink flowered dress and a pink onesie. Already a little stylish tot. She was just eighteen hours old. I can't wait to see her again.

Welcome to the world, Baby Girl! You've got a couple of big brothers and two boy cousins so get ready for. It's going to be fun! You look like you are up to the task! Lots of love from, Great Grandma

Brett and Amanda, congratulations.
