Kate Marie Hammond entered this world at 2:08pm on Sunday, May 31, 2009 weighing 7.8 lbs and 21" long. She had a few difficulties adjusting to the world when she was born and thought it would be fun to take a trip down to the NICU. She was having problems breathing and maintaing her O2 sats and bloodsugars. So they kept her under observation in the NICU for about 4.5 hours after her birth. She proved to be a champ and was ok to come back to my room and stay with me.
She is such a doll and we love her to pieces! Her four older brothers are in love with her and want to hold her all the time! We are thrilled to have a little girl and are loving all the pink surrounding us!
