Tessa Noelle was born 8:57 PM on Dec. 14. She's a little peanut--6 lb. 1.5 oz. Yesterday, she weighed 5 lb. 12 oz. but hopefully we can get her weight up once my milk comes in completely (it's beginning to come in now). Breastfeeding is hard, but she has a good latch and good suck, so I'm hopeful it will go well. I can't believe how fast my stomach is going down. I barely look like I had a baby and have been peeing like crazy & super thirsty.

Anyway, I'm home now, just got discharged late yesterday afternoon. Tessa's birth was very smooth, couldn't have gone better or been easier, with the exception of a 2nd degree epistomoty. I will work on the birth story & pics; I didn't have internet access at the hospital. Hopefully, I can get that posted soon.

In the meantime, here's a link to her hospital picture taken this morning. You have to enter some info to access the link:
