After 17 hours of labor (and then, a c-section), we welcomed Amelia into the world at 3.45 am. on Thursday, January 10th, 2008. Some pictures from her first couple of days!
After a long wait, Stephanie and the grandparents get their first view of Amelia when they clean her up (at this point, she's about three minutes old).
Jamie holds the new little person just before they leave the hospital, swaddled in the pink blanket Grandma Wallis knitted for the occasion
Kristie with her daughter, dressed to the nines for her departure from Durham Regional
Amelia modeling the custom onesie Stephanie made for her
In her Moses basket, sleeping soundly
With her first hospital visitors, Uncle Bruce and Aunt Lorraine
Ready for her close-up, not particularly pleased about it.
Second visitors to the hospital with Sumie and Brian!
Baby was a little jaundiced, so she got to sleep on a blue light. Tron baby!
Nice. Now there's a good looking family.
Snuggled up with loving Grandpa Magnotta
We kept everybody in ridiculous suspense, until we settled on a name! (shameful)!
Decked out in hospital freebies (you know we took all that home!)
Relaxing with her ridiculously photogenic Aunt Stephanie
Cradled by proud Grandad Wallis
The girls!
Sleeping soundly in the arms of radiant Grandmother Wallis
Hanging out with ecstatic Grandma Magnotta
Just a few minutes old, swaddled up in hospital blankets and a sweet little cap
Dad and a little peanut
