Big and exciting news!

A few days after our last post I ended up giving birth to our baby!

I was out for ice cream with a friend when my water broke. I called the hospital and they said to come in. That was on Monday the 9th. They induced me early Tuesday morning, and then come Tuesday afternoon Cadence Olivia King-Lackey was here! I was very lucky my labour was relatively short and I had lots of medication to control pain. Even though Cadence was almost 4 weeks early, she was given a clean bill of health and we went to the ward to settle for a bit.

Unfortunately, there were some complications and Cadence was having issues with feeding and then she had a pretty bad case of jaundice. We were in hospital until Saturday afternoon, at that point we both practically ran out of the hospital we were so excited to be home.

Since being home things have been going really well. The dogs at first were so excited to see her, Paul especially. She's been eating so much and sleeping really well, we are very lucky so far.

We've got a busy week coming up with appointments and getting into a routine. Should be an exciting time! And, as per usual, here are some pics!
