Now that the dust has settled it's time for an update. Campbell Claire Johnson is now a part of our world. Our little bundle of sporadic movement was 7lbs 3.8 ounces or 4 ounces if you want to round up. She comes in at 20 1/2 inches long and arrived on Friday the 13th (yes, Friday the 13th) at 8:51pm. She immediately opened her eyes and had them open throughout the night. Taylor was absolutely amazing during the whole experience. We arrived at the hospital after battling traffic and a short discussion on whether we had enough gas to get there, just after 6pm. At that point, pleasantries had dissipated and there were crazy colors in Taylor's once green eyes. Since we arrived at the hospital at 8 centimeters dilated we sent the room into a tailspin, there were people flying around like acrobats at Cirque de Soleil and plastic tubes, gloves, and wrappers all over the place. Things quickly got more comfortable after the epidural and two hours later, after a short 10 minute intense ab workout by Taylor, Campbell had arrived. Both girls are coming along fabulously at this point and the fun really began when big sister, Piper, got to meet her little sister. At this point, Piper loves her little sister. I wonder how long that will last and if that will change?
