Alisha's Arrival

Alisha arrived on Monday December 15, 2008 at 10:03 in the morning. She weighed 6 lb, 7 0z and was 20.5 inches long. She made her way into the world via c-section. The doctor told me I could be in labor for 8 to 14 hours or I could meet my daughter now, and of course I could not wait. It turned out that c-section was the right decsion because Alisha had the umbilical cord wrapped around her neck. Just goes to show God always knows best. Daddy was super excited to meet his daughter for the first time and stayed with her while I was in recovery. Later when we had our room Alisha was greeted by her grandparents, mama's, bua's, and in the next few days everyone else there was to meet.
