Brevyn Grace Reed

Well the Lord blessed us with a sweet little sassy thing we like to call Brevyn Grace on March 14, 2015 at 9:16 am. She was 7 lb 13 oz and 19.5 in long. Hmm...Let's just get this down on "paper" before I forget, because I promised to never let him live it down. My dear sweet husband, in the cold surgery suite, I'm getting prepped and starting to get nervous. I look over my left shoulder and somewhat whisper "hold my hand". That man says "No, I'm cold." He did not want to unfold his arms. That was when I laughed and said I'm never going to let you live that down. A few minutes later I told him I did not care if he was cold, he needed to hold my hand. :)
So, now that I can make sure I won't forget to hold that against him for the rest of his life, we can move on. haha Of course they give you a quick look but then take the baby to the side to get her cleaned up and checked out. Marty had a better view than me. I was so thankful just to be hearing a healthy baby girl cry!! Marty was whispering and telling me "she's got dark hair" and "she's awesome" oh and "she's a chunker". Anything would be to us after Bricen. :0)  I think the fact that she had a head full of dark hair was Marty's favorite part. They brought her over, I kissed those sweet cheeks, told her happy birthday and that her mama had been praying for her. Then that turd Daddy kept his new #1 girl in his life warm while they finished me up. :0)
We had our alone time and some skin to skin before everyone met up with us. Just can't put into words just how special that time is. After a short time under the warmer (which tore me up letting her go, I'll call it PTSD lol) she was finally able to make her appearance and meet the world.
Our hospital stay was uneventful. Poor Bricen was sick so Marty stayed with him at home at night and Brianna and Aunt Karen stayed with me. After two nights we broke out of there. Bricen did come see us at the hospital. I expected him not to want much to do with Brevyn but was surprised and sad (darn hormones made it worse lol) that he didn't want anything to do with me. He played some hide and seek in the shower in the room and had fun doing that. Haha
Once we were home, it took some adjusting, and more than once he has asked me to put baby sister back in my belly but he loves his sister and is very protective of her at times. Now, let's see those pictures!
