On October 1, 2009 at 1:13 p.m., Camille Mary was born into this world. She was 7 lbs, 11 oz and 20 inches long. I had a c-section and everything went very smooth. I got to the hospital at 10:30 a.m. and she was here about 3 hours later. I still can't believe that she is here.
Brandon and I struggled with a name. I have always loved the name Camille and wanted to name a girl that. But, when she was born, we kept going back and forth between a couple of names and nothing really felt solid. So, on Friday, we were forced to name her and finally decided that we really did like Camille and I am so happy we ended up with that name. I love it and can't wait to say it for the rest of my life :)
She is the BEST baby ever. She wakes up every 3 - 4 hours, eats and goes back to sleep. We are working on getting her to stay awake a little more during the day. We like to see her eyes and play with her.
Dillon and Daniel both love their sister. Daniel can often times be caught sharing is blankie with her and asking if she is ok. Dillon had a hard time at first remembering his sister's name. He would ask about 20 times a day - "what is her name again? I know is starts with a C." He is a funny kid. I think that he remembers by now.
The adjustment has been really great. My mom is here helping me out and I am so glad to have her! Brandon's mom also has helped us so much. We are so lucky to have such great moms that would drop anything for us and help. We love them so much.
Well, here are some pictures of our little princess. I know that she will be spoiled, but she deserves it. If she continues to be this good of a baby, she can have anything she wants :)

Proud Grandmas!
Happy family!

Congratulations! I LOVE the name Camille (I really wanted it for my girl, but that's a long story). She is absolutely beautiful, and I am so happy for you! I hope you are doing well. That C-Section really threw me for a loop. It took me a long time to recover. Hopefully, you have a ton of help and that it goes well for you. So, so, so happy!
Congrats Mary and Brandon! I can't wait to meet Camille. So glad that you are all doing well.
Mary - she is the most beautiful baby! Congratulations! My C-section baby was a really good sleeper, too. I still remember after I was off medication she actually cried when she was hungry. But she is still a good sleeper and she's almost 10!
Congratulations!!! She is beautiful!
