Page’s first party

Saturday, August 28th, 2010

Netflix put on a family picnic at Saratoga Springs. Page made her debut, and we took Carson along too.

Oh, hi!

Page Gibson is here! For us American folk, she weighs 7 lbs. 8 oz. and is 20 inches long. No, she is not named after Jimmy’s guitar, but after Brendan’s Grandma Winifred Page. (Although thanks to Anne-Britt she does share the same birthday as Keith Moon.) Despite coming from a family of 11, Grandma was the last of the Page’s. When Brendan and I first found out I was pregnant,  that was the name we immediately agreed upon.

Yesterday was a whirlwind. It went by so fast. I labored from noon – 2 AM and pushed for an hour when she was born at 3:07. It was 10 times easier than I thought it would be. I did have the help of an epidural, but I was still amazed by how smooth everything went. The last hour was extremely painful and looking back its like an out of body experience. Page came out as perfect as I could have imagined, healthy, soft, alert, beautiful.

Ok, so sleepy. More later…


The first time we held you
