Aria's Debut!

Ok...this will be the initial introduction with the basic info and then much more details to come. Aria made her greatly anticipated debut on Thursday Sept. 18, 2008 at 7:13pm. It ended up being an emergency c-section due to her heartbeat picking up too much and being irregular. It turned out she had the chord around her neck and I was not progressing past 4cm and 80% thinned out (effaced). Not to mention take a look at the stats!: Marialicia (Aria) Ellen Smith; 10 lbs. 1/2 oz. 22 inches long! Never in my life would I have thought I would have had a 10 pounder! Nonetheless, we are doing great and are hoping to go home tomm. the 21st. The following pics are just teasers I know, but there will be plenty more, do not worry about that. Thank you to all of those who were sending us your blessing and good thoughts. We would not have wanted to share this moment of our lives without all of you that mean so much! Love, the Smith family Matt, Nicole and Aria
