No, these aren't old pictures of Tatum's birth. This is Marley B. Fisher. Born on February 27, 2009 at 11:16 AM. Although Morgan was scheduled to be induced that day, she started having contractions the night before, and was at 4 cm when we arrived at the hospital that morning. After getting an epidural, they gave her some pitocin (sp?) to speed things along. Sure enough, when it came time to push, she only had to push for about 8 minutes, and voila! we had a baby girl. Marley is the most chill baby you'll ever meet. I still haven't heard her cry yet.
She grunts a lot and makes little growling noises (kind of like a little piggy), but if we let her she would just sleep all the time. Marley's middle name is B. - as in the letter "B" with a period after it. This is my grandpa's middle name (Willie B. Fisher - sweet name huh?). Tatum loves being a big sister. Although she was convinced that the baby's name would be "Cindy" (the name of her nursery teacher), she now enjoys referring to "baby Marley" when we talk about it. When asked what she is going to do to help
mommy with the baby, she says that she will "go get powder and diapies." She's a cute big sister and is growing up fast. Morgan and Tatum spent the last week up in Portland before the delivery, just in case Morgan were to go into labor (her doctor and hospital are up there). So when I saw Tatum for the first time in a week, I couldn't believe how grown up she was. It seems that whenever Tatum is away from our home here in Eugene for any period of time, she goes through a growth/development spurt. I imagine it must have something to do with being out of her normal schedule (which is this: eat, play dollhouse, watch little einsteins, eat, nap, play blocks, watch little einsteins, eat, play dollhouse, and go to bed). Well, we hope to get some more pictures of Marley up soon. Maybe she'll wake up one of these days so I can take some good ones with her eyes actually open. Talk to you soon.
