5 days later

today my little jane is 5 days old! what a whirlwind it has been. we went to the hospital at 7 am wednesday june 10th and..... many posts later (i will tell bits and pieces when i can)... at 4:29 pm, jane annebelle gompert was born. (next few posts... people came to visit, i rested in bed, we were there two days, and friday we came home.) we have many pictures on multiple cameras and i will share them over time or on facebook. the first night was very tough and so far, becoming and being a parent is the most difficult thing i have ever done but we are having a great time with jane and we are so grateful to God for His many blessings and for our new little girl. it has been a great five days.

her cute rainbow outfit - about 3 hours after this photo she spit up - that is baby speak for vomit - all over it! i hope the stains come out.

this is her little smirk/smile and her "one eye check" around to make sure all is well

Lord, bless this girl and her life. may she grow to love You through us and all the people who love her. amen

I bought a large sized Shout to get the stains out and it works great. I have even sprayed it on dried on spit up, pee and poop and it still comes out. It will be your best friend...

She is BEAUTIFUL! Congrats on mommyhood - and I look forward to more honest reflections on being a mom. Your statement that becoming and being a mom is the hardest thing you have ever done was very striking.

Miss you.

She looks so adorable in the rainbow outfit I, Auntie Sarah, gave her :) I also agree with mom, the smirk reminds me of Pete.
