Bridget Catherine Doudt arrived earlier than planned. She decided it was time to see the world at 5:53am on Sunday, 5/11/14. She weighed 6 pounds 14 ounces and was 21.5 inches long. Sara's C-Section went perfect and Bridget came out singing...loudly, and hasn't stopped. She certainly has a set of lungs on her. Bridget has got a lot of black hair that likes to stick up in mow-hawk fashion. She is a great eater and so far loves to nap in the daytime...which we need to get switched to the nighttime.
Xavier has been a good big brother, pointing at Bridget and saying, "baby." Otherwise, he's mostly ignored her probably thinking she'll leave at some point. :) Unfortunately, Xavier has been dealing with an ear infection and cold so he's been a little extra clingy and fussy.
We also wanted to give a shout-out and BIG THANKS to Gabrielle, Ben, Barbara, and Brian for all their help on Saturday night and Sunday looking after Xavier while we went to the hospital. Plus, Brian mowed our lawn. It's never looked so good. Being so far from family, it's such a blessing to have close friends there for you.
