Pictures of Lauren

Here are some pictures of Lauren in the first three days of her life. We checked into the hospital at 7:30 AM on Monday, February 9th for an induction. We scheduled the induction because my doctor was going on a trip for Valentine's Day with his wife and Lauren was coming at any time. Things progressed VERY quickly, and we even had to wait 50 minutes for my doctor to come over!

(My Dad has many of the really good shots, and I haven't gotten his pictures yet so here is what I have.)

As we rounded the corner, Jackson and Mama J were standing outside waiting for us. Jackson was jumping up and down as soon as he saw our car. It was SO much fun seeing how excited he was!!

Jackson had to give her a kiss as soon as we walked in the house.
