Georgia on My Mind

Georgia Eve
Our beautiful baby girl was born at 2:31a.m. on Friday, October 18th! She was a week overdue & after a relatively short, intense labor, she had arrived!  She weighed in at 10 lbs. 8 oz. & 22 1/2 inches (about the same size as Gabe & Gemma... though a few ounces more). But, after pooping out loads of meconium, she weighed almost 1 lb. less ;)

We took a short list of names to the hospital & after a day with her, decided on Georgia Eve Hoggan.  Both are names we have loved for a while now, but she had a peachiness to her that just screamed, "Georgia!" (As well as several songs crooning about "Georgia.")  I love the nickname "Georgie."  Gabe wants to call her "Evie." And Gemma just calls her "MY baby!" Patrick is deciding between "Pumpkin" & "Geves." :)  We are thrilled to have her here!

Arriving at Labor & Delivery... very pregnant!

Her first photo... minutes after her birth. 





She's a long girl!


Ready for her first ride.  So far, she loves her carseat.

She is a peaceful, calm little soul! 


Gemma mastering the "soft touch" 

Gabe & Gemma are in love!  (Grandma Kathy is too!)
