Savannah's BIG DAY!

Webfetti.com


We can't believe it's been 5 years. I'm starting to panick a little because I am having a hard time remembering everything about her as a baby. That is the worst feeling. She is a big KINDERGARTNER now and it is going to be so emotional for me to let her go. I'm going to very lonely without her. The decision not to have any more kids has been a hard one. She is daddy's little girl and his pride and joy. It's fun to watch him with her - he can't discipline her because he feels sooo guilty afterwards. She is wrapped around his finger.

When we arrived at the hospital on May 6, 2003 to welcome Savannah to our family we were very anxious. I was having a C/Section but the lab work revealed that my hematocrit was 18. It should have been 40. I received 4 units of blood over a 24 hour period before they could perform the C/S. So instead of the day we planned on, we met Savannah the morning of MAY 7, 2003 @ 0757. She was 6 lbs 4 oz and 18" - TINY! She was so CUTE! Bo was 5 at the time she was born and she is 5 today. That's kinda crazy to think about. Bo seemed like such a big boy at that time. Probably because I needed him to be.

Happy Birthday Savannah Banana!
