Wednesday October 20th, at 8:33 Charlotte "Charlee" Anne Austin was born at Covenant Medical Center in Waterloo, Iowa. Charlee was 9 pounds 1 ounce and was 21 inches long. She Took about 12 hours to come, I was induced about 8:30 AM. Charlotte was born healthy and happy!!
We spent three days in the hospital where Charlotte passed all of her test and we able to come home on Friday morning. When we came home we spent a little time getting adjusted and then Papa John, Mary, Mimi and Zoe came. It was great to have everyone here. Papa John and Mary left to have dinner and then Grandpa Mike came up and we ate dinner at home.
After Mimi and Grandpa Mike left, it was bath time!! Zoe was a great help with Charlotte and then it was her turn. It was great to have all four Austins happy and home together.
Saturday was a very lazy day. Jake and I were some what tired as Charlotte of course had been up several times through out the night. We just hung out at home most of the day and had company in the evening. It was a great Saturday!!
Sunday morning we tried to go to the 9 AM church service and of course we under calculated the time it would take to get to church. So we ended up taking two cars:) Sunday afternoon we headed to Vinton for Great Grandparents to meet Charlotte.
Monday we had company, everyone wants to see Charlee!! Tuesday we headed to the new born assesment clinic at the hospital to find out how Charlee was doing. She got a clean bill of health!!
It has been a great first week of Charlee's life. We are very blessed to have her!! The weather looks like it should be pretty nice for Halloween, I am sure both girls will have a great Halloween.
