maddison ann brooks

born november 10th, 2010 at 16:15.

7 lbs 10 oz. 20.5 inches.

she is the most beautiful baby i have ever seen in my life!

we have all been praying for this baby for years, and to be able to hold her in my arms yesterday was something that i will never forget. she is a precious gift from God!


i couldnt be happier for rob & carly. :)

it was a VERY special day. here are a few of the 6,987 pictures...

rob & carly after a long & rough night

the visiting committee

a bit sobering... it was obviously hard on carly & but also hard for rob to watch his wife go through all that pain

after four hours of pushing with no progress, they were forced to do a c-section

"short term" as in 12 hours... i hope?

Maddison Ann is gorgeous!!! But you already know this!

Enjoy each moment of her ... don't rush her to grow up because before you know it, she'll be in kindergarten.

Always remember that you two are the Unit ... and Maddison is the addition. Treat each other gently and love each other -- which is the best gift you can give your child(ren).

Best advise from my pediatrician:
"When your baby sleeps, YOU sleep. There is nothing that has to be done that can't be done when she's awake." (my firstborn is now 48)

Gentle as you go,
Marny
