Katlyn Dawn Jackson

I know Matt did a little update, but I wanted to do a little update as Mommy this morning, too! First of all, Katlyn is absolutely adorable and we have a hard time taking our eyes and hands off of her! She was born at 10:05PM on Tuesday, March 24th. She weighed 7 lbs, 7oz. and was 19inches long. She has quite a bit of hair and we are all trying to figure out if it is going to turn blond or stay brown. It has some curl to it and I can't wait to get the bows on her little head! She is a great baby and loves to be wrapped up like a little burrito. Matt is better at that than me, but I think I will improve with practice! She makes the sweetest little sounds and even her cry is beautiful to me! She is eating good now and keeping us on our toes...2 hours sure does fly by quickly!!! She is named after both of our Mom's and we are so proud of ourselves for keeping the secret from everyone. Katlyn is after my Mom (Katrina Lynnette) and Dawn after Matt's Mom. We have had the name since before we even knew she would be a girl and think it fits her well. She was checked this afternoon by the pediatrician and they said she is perfect...could you expect any less??? Matt is already the best Daddy and is taking care of Katlyn and I while we are still at the hospital. We get to come home Friday morning and are looking forward to it, although we have been blessed to have some absolutely wonderful Nurses and Doctors here at Piedmont Fayette. I hate to see each shift change! We have enjoyed all of our visitors and will be posting lots of photos very soon! I can't wait to get home and play dress up if she will let me! I love being a Mommy already and Matt and I are so thankful that God has blessed us with a happy and healthy little bundle of pure joy!
