Introducing Devri Kate Duncan

We are so excited to have our little Devri home with us! Devri made her grand entrance Monday, May 2 at 7:47 pm. My water broke in the shower that morning (how convenient!) so I called Colby who was already at school to tell him the news. He didn't believe me at first since it was 4 days before my due date and we were not expecting her to come early. However, he came home and we made our way to the hospital and 9 hours later had a baby. Everything went very smooth during labor and delivery, and I felt enough to know that I am very thankful for epidurals! The baby was originally posterior, but the doctor got her to turn as she was born. We all had guesses for how much she would weigh. The doctor and Colb guessed 7 pounds 4 ounces, the nurse guessed 7 pounds 1 ounce, and I guessed 7 pounds 8 ounces. She came in at a whopping 8 pounds 4 ounces and was 20.5 inches long (which was a big baby for her momma). She has been such a good, sweet-natured baby. She cries very little and gives us lots of cute facial expressions. She looks a lot like her daddy, but is starting to look more like her momma as she changes each day. We are so thankful for her sweet spirit in our home and adore her! I think she already has daddy (and momma) wrapped around her finger!

It has also been so fun to have Grandma Darc (my mom) here with us. As soon as she got news that little Dev was coming early, she changed her flight and jumped on an airplane and arrived about 1 am the night Devri was born. We have had lots of fun playing dress up and catching up since we've been so far away. We are also super excited to take a trip to Utah so we can see the rest of our family and introduce them to our Devri. We love you Dev!
