Isn't She Beautiful? She's gorgeous! She's even got her moms big hawaiian nose! She was born Feb 18th at 7:14 am. 6 lbs 10 oz (the exact same as vin, and the same birthday as my mom) and was delivered by the same doctor as vincent. Only thing was, this same doctor moved to new mexico 2 years ago and just happened to be working in AK this week only for they clinic i go to. Crazy!!! anyways, we were very excited when my other doctor called and told me to go in early tuesday to get induced. Apparently they were concerned about her size and the lack of fluid. We got in the afternoon of the 17th, and began the "process" at 5 pm. Luckily no petocin this time! they gave me something to soften the cervix and 12 hours later i went into labor by myself (so proud). At 5 am it got really bad and I still hadn't dialated much yet and the pain was severe so i had already decided on a epideral because of the last time i got induced. (pain!!!) So i got the epideral and 2 hours later dialated all the way to a ten. Unfortunately everytime i had a contraction near the end her heart beat would go way down and it wasn't until the she came out they saw the cord was wraped around her neck tight! But she came out within two contractions and she was beautiful. I'm so glad she's out (for more reasons than one) and we finally get to kiss her sweet smelling little face.
She reminds me a lot of her brother Vinny except the nose, her nose is like her moms. She also has a ton of hair!
Brother Vinny meeting Vera for the first time. He's going to be a great big brother! He calls her "baby" in his sweet, high pitched voice.
So now that I have a baby girl I can't help but throw on the bows! They are just so cute in them. So i had to do a modeling shoot of course too, once the bows started flying on. Near the end Vincent came over and started saying "baby, baby" and started rubbing her back. It was one of the cutest things. i know, this is totally a brag about my kids and probably pretty boring for other the read but i'm a huge softy now when it comes to my kids. Hey, i know atleast my mom digs it.

Can you spot 3 moose in this photo? One is pretty obvious but the other two not so much. We had these three hanging out across the street from us most of the morning yesturday. We had another one hanging out this morning. The one this morning had a collar on it though. Must of been someones lost moose. 
The other thing we do when we are bored, vin and i, are watch the millions of birds that for some reason DON"T fly south for the winter. I don't know what bird in their right mind would want to stay here for all 6 months of winter but these little guys too. their really pretty cute.
k. so i know this is a repeat to some of you from emails but i need to get as much votes as possible. it's such a close tie, everyone's vote still puts it half to half. Thanks for everyone that has helped. oh, and for those that don't know it's for the "Live with Regis" baby contest. thanks everyone!
