Brianne Wells Fischer

We welcomed Brianne into the world on Sunday, July 31, 2011! She was 10 days early...I guess she was trying to be fashionably early like her sister. The delivery went well- I was able to have a v-back instead of a c-section which I am still very grateful for. The recovery has been a breeze compared to my recovery from Addison. Brianne was 7 pounds 12 ounces and 20 1/2 inches long. James and I feel so blessed to have Brianne here- healthy and strong. Here are some pictures...


Bri has been a much more calm and relaxed baby (knock on wood) then Addison. It has been a nice change. The first 48 hours we could hardly get her to wake up and eat. We only heard her cry a few times. Unfortunately, that has changed:), but it was a nice 48 hours while it lasted. ha ha.
I don't think James has put this little girl down since she has gotten here. Every time he's home he is holding her. Which is very nice for me:). It's amazing how much more comfortable you feel with a second baby.

I think James and I were both worried about how our spoiled little Addy would take to little Bri. She did so much better then we expected. She loves holding her, kissing, hugging her, and putting her pacifier in when she's crying. She is a great big sister and a even bigger help to her mom.



We asked the nursery to wait to give her a bath until we could watch. We didn't get many good pictures during the bath of her bright red because she was screaming so bad- but as soon as the nurse dried her off and held her up for a picture she passed out! It was actually quite funny.

Addy loves Bri. I cannot wait for Bri to get a little bit older and see them interacting more together.



Things are going much better then I expected being a mom of two. I find myself counting down the days to the weekend when James is off, but what mom doesn't do that:) I feel like our little family is complete (for now), and we are just so excited that our Bri is finally here- safe and sound.



Now on to the next adventure in life...potty training!:) (Addy that is:))
