Brand New Baby

On 21 Feb, Lyndi Nadine Bingham was born in Sulzbach, Germany. Here are some photos shortly after she came into our world.

Minutes after the birth, she came out screaming and with a lot of vernix. Her face is slightly swollen and somewhat black and blue.
Few things are as beautiful as a newborn and her loving mother. Both did very well during the labor and delivery and both are healthy and doing good.


Although I couldn't believe how small she seemed at first, she was actually our heaviest baby. She weighed 8 lbs and 1 oz, and was 21 inches long.
Emily and Lyndi should be home tomorrow (Monday afternoon). I'm sure she will have a much more detailed blog posted soon.

It is so amazing how small newborns look. I don't think I told you but I had a little boy about a year ago. What an amazing experience. I would love to give you permission to view my blog... if you have a minute shoot me an email gwenethowens@yahoo.com

Miss you!
Love,
