Another Girl!


I'm an aunt again! My sister Emily just gave birth to a beautiful little girl! Now they have two. I'm telling you, the Cook family does not know how to give birth to boys! They named her Abigail. She was just over 6 lbs., 19 inches, dark hair. Very long, skinny baby. Both mommy and baby are doing fantastic.

Emily amazes me in child birth. Yesterday, she thought she was having contractions and decided to go to the hospital to get checked out. She got there, and found out she was indeed in labor. They gave her an epidural, broke her water at 7:00 PM, and Abigail was born at 9:00 PM. Man, maybe I need to hire Emily as my surrogate! I know after she had Savannah that we were joking with Emily about her babies just walking out of her, but this is ridiculous! She was going to be induced today, but I guess Abigail couldn't wait any longer.

Welcome to the family, little Abigail! We love you already!


Emily, right after childbirth - doesn't she look gorgeous?!

My niece, Savannah - isn't she adorable?
