January 4, 2010: Sydney's Birthday!

This morning at 8:58am, Sydney Loraine Hewitt came into this world! She weighs 6 pounds 6 ounces and is 19-3/4" long. She has a little bit of hair that is brown and straight at this point. No curls yet! : ) Everybody says she looks like her daddy but you can tell she's got her mommy's little button nose! Abby and I are in awe of our precious little girl. She is most definitely a wonderful miraculous little gift from God. Abby and I feel so blessed that Sydney is healthy and strong.













Sydney caught onto breast feeding right away and is eating very well. Abby is doing a wonderful job of nurturing and caring for Sydney. She's a great mom! She and Sydney are doing well and resting comfortably.




We are so thankful for all of the Doctors, Labor & Delivery and Post-partum staff at Presby. Everyone that took part in Sydney's delivery and her care thereafter were amazing! You are all very special to our family. We appreciate all the friends and family members that spent time with us today and those that sent their well wishes. We look forward to showing off Sydney to many others in the near future!


We'll be staying in the hospital for a few more days. Once things settle down a bit we will have more pictures and stories to share.
