She's Here!!!

Miss Chloe Matilda Ockerman made her way into the world at 11:43 a.m. on Wednesday, July 28th, 2010. She weighed 8 pounds and 5 ounces and was 21 inches long. She has light brown/blonde hair and pretty, dark blue eyes. She looks like Joslyn to me, but I've heard she looks like Ryan and Courtney too, so she is definitely going to fit right in! She spent 2 1/2 days in NICU, with an IV in her poor little head, her blood glucose was low at first then the had to make sure she could sustain it on her own, but by Friday afternoon, she was delivered to my room - VERY Happy Moment for me! 1st because NICU is on the 2nd floor and I was on the 3rd, long walk and the wheelchair ride made me just nauseous! 2nd because then I could just hold her and not worry about all the wires and lines they had attached to her! She really is just a beautiful baby, very good, likes to sleep during the day and be up every hour at night, but we are getting her turned around, she sleeps 2 1/2 - 3 hours between feedings at night and stays awake a little bit more during the day, she loves to be naked but hates her diaper changed, she likes to have her hair washed under the faucet, we haven't been able to do a whole bath yet, because her belly button hasn't fallen off yet, but I bet she will love it! She smiles in her sleep a lot - so cute! Her sisters absolutely adore her and Chad thinks she is pretty neat. She has us wrapped around her little finger!
