Monica Jayne Foster

Monica was born at 8:40 am on Monday, October 22, 2007. I was only in labor for about 4 1/2 hours--alright! She weighed 8 pounds, 3 ounces and was 20 3/4 inches long. We came home from the hospital on Tuesday afternoon and everything is going great. We are very happy.


Proud parents.


Big girl.

Welcome to the world.


Proud Papa.


Mom, baby and our wonderful doula Nicole.


Dr. Forschner - a great man.


Proud big brother.


Goofy face.


Tired face.



Cal, Monica and the gang at the hospital.

Yay! I've been policing your blog in anticipation of these pictures. The boys and I watched the video about 5 times in a row. She is SO adorable and SO big! 8 lbs....that's quite an accomplishment. I love the little bow on her hospital cap. Cal looks
excited to be a big brother. We can't wait to meet Monica at Christmas!

Love the pictures AND the video!!! I'm going to call you today sometime...probably before you read this. Man, that video made me cry. I must be pregnant or something. :) I am SO happy that everything went well with your delivery and that it was so short! I've gone ahead and signed up for the 4-hour plan. I hope whoever needs to gets that memo before February.

I love ya, Ang, and I am so glad that I only have to wait until November 19th to see her!

Wow. I am so late in posting comments! Congratulations to all of you Fosters, and welcome Monica! You have awesome parents, in case you didn't know...but you probably did. Any Mom who makes your delivery priority enough to do it in under 5 hours must be fantastic!
