I'm a BIG SISTER!!!

Hi, Everyone!

Well, it happened a few days sooner than expected... but he's here! We don't know what his first name is yet (we hope he tells us soon!) but since his middle name had already been chosen as Valentine, I suppose it's only fitting that he had to come on February 14th! (For those of you who didn't know, Valentine was Daddy's Uncle Bill Ozdych's real name, and it has been passed down for generations.) Here's how it happened: Mommy went in for her 38-week checkup and during a test, the doctors thought they saw some fetal distress (the baby's heart rate would go down). They sent her over to the hospital for an ultrasound and the same thing was happening, especially when she layed on her back. So Dr. Irving thought it would be best if they took him out yesterday rather than wait until Monday.

Here's a picture of Mommy while they're getting her ready to take out my baby brother.



As it turns out, his umbilical cord was wrapped around his leg, so it's a really good thing we didn't wait until Monday... he might have rolled over onto it! Here's Baby Boy Valentine Ozdych with Mommy. He weighs 6 lbs., 14 ozs. and is 19 inches long. He loves to eat and sleep and poop (just like our Daddy does!)



I got to meet him this morning... Aunt Beth took a lot of pictures (and so did Aunt Jen... go to her blog to see some of when I got to meet him!) I think he's very handsome. We can't wait for you to meet him, too!


Mommy and I will post more pictures as we take them... and as soon as Daddy and Mommy decide on a name, we'll let you know!

Happy Birthday, Baby Brother!

Love, Mollee
