After nine (very) long months, Margot Rose McCann was born Memorial Day, May 30th, 2011 at 12:07 p.m. I labored at home for a few hours, was admitted to the hospital around 8:00 a.m. and after a little scare with Meconium, we were able to see our (big) little baby.
Margot weighed 9 lbs 4.2 oz. at birth and was 20 1/2 inches long. As the nurses were taking her to the warming table, we kept hearing over and over again "what a big baby".
(I have a feeling I will be looking up at both Rubi and Margot to scold them as teenagers.)
Rubi immediately gave Margot a kiss when they were introduced for the first time, then asked for some juice.
Although it's taken a few days, Rubi has really warmed up to Margot. We heard several times, "can we send her back?", but overall Rubi has become a wonderful big sister. She's even taken on the role of taking the dirty diapers to the garbage, to a four year old obsessed with poop jokes, this is a big deal!
Margot is fitting right into our crazy home. She's the cherry on top of our little family.
