Introducing... Callie Tristan Miller

Here are some pictures of our newest addition... Callie Tristan Miller. She was born Friday, Sept. 5th at 6:40pm. She weighed 7lb. 5oz. (3.320kg) and was 19 1/4 inches (49cm) long. The c-section went very well. We got to the hospital at 5pm, the doctor got there a little after 6, and by 6:40 she was born. Since this is my 3rd c-section in such a short amount of time, my recuperation is going a little slower this time around. But let me just brag about my husband a second... he has taken on all of the responsibility of the housework and the 3 girls while I'm resting up. This morning he took care of breakfast, cleaned the kitchen, did 2 loads of laundry (including hanging it up to dry), swept and mopped the floors, and went grocery shopping... all before lunch! We have also been blessed with amazing neighbors who have been helping out with keeping the 3 girls. They kept them while we were in the hospital and tonight the girls are there while Daddy went to play some basketball... he still needs to get out of the house and clear his head a little after all that housework!! But we just see how God has been so faithful to provide for us in all areas. This family next door is a Christian family and they have 3 teenage daughters (ages 16, 18 & 19) who love kids, and practically beg us to let our girls go over and play. They have just been such a blessing. Anyway... on to some pictures... My good friend Priscila (who is due in a month). The nurses at the hospital kept asking which one of us was having the baby.
Last pregnant picture!

She's definitely a sucker!

Doesn't Elysia look so big now?!?
She loves being swaddled up... not for long though in this heat. She'll soon have some good baby fat on her and will want to just be in a diaper all the time!

Awesome!! CONGRATULATIONS!! I've been waiting for this announcement. She so, so sweet. Love her. I so wish we could see y'all before you leave the country. Maybe when we make it up to the states next time...I'm sure we'll be passing through PA.

Congratulations again. She's beautiful. Love the name too. I had a grandmother named Callie.
