Stephanie Marie Anderson











Our little girl, Stephanie Marie Anderson, was born on Tuesday, April 20, 2010 at 5:36 p.m. at Alta View Hospital in Sandy, Utah. She was 6 lbs. 1 oz. and 19 1/2 inches long.

Nuestra pequena hijita, Stephanie Marie Anderson, nacio el Martes, 20 de Abril, de 2010 a las 5:36 de la noche en el Hospital de Alta View en Sandy, Utah. Ella peso 6 libras y una onza y midio 19 1/2 pulgadas de largo.

She wasn't due until May 14th, and Jackie was expecting to have her by cesarean on May 7th. But on Tuesday morning, when Jackie went to her doctor for an ultrasound, the doctor told her that they needed to take the baby that same day. The reason was that her amniotic fluid was low, and the baby was not moving so much. They told her to go straight to the hospital - she couldn't even stop at home to pick up her things.

Estaba planeado como fecha de alumbramiento el 14 de Mayo, y Jackie esperaba tener su cesarea el 7 de Mayo. Pero el Martes en la manana, cuando Jackie fue a su cita con el doctor para un ultrasonido, el doctor le menciono que ella tenia que dar a luz ese dia. La razon fue que el liquido amniotico estaba bajo y que la bebita no se estaba moviendo mucho. Ellos le dijeron a Jackie que vaya de frente al hospital - ni podia parar en la casa para recoger su maleta.

When Dave got the call at work saying Jackie was having the baby that day, he couldn't believe it. He rushed home and relieved Nathan's babysitter. Then Dave's parents came over to watch Nathan so Dave could go to the hospital. Dave met Jackie at the hospital, and that afternoon, Jackie gave birth to our cutie pie little girl, Stephanie.

Cuando Dave recibio la llamada en su trabajo que Jackie iba a tener a la bebita ese dia, el no podia creerlo. El se apresuro ir a la casa y reemplazar a la persona que estaba cuidando Nathan. Despues, los padres de Dave vinieron para cuidar Nathan asi Dave podia ir al hospital. Dave se reunio con Jackie en el hospital y esa tarde, Jackie dio a luz a nuestra pequena hijita, Stephanie.

Stephanie has dark hair, and we think her eyes are blue. She is a little snuggler - when you hold her she likes to rub her head up against your neck. She looks a lot like Dave - her chin, lips, facial shape, legs and feet. So while Nathan looks like mommy, Stephanie is a daddy's girl.

Stephanie tiene el cabello oscuro, y pensamos que tiene ojos azules. A ella le gusta las caricias, y cuando tu la abrazas, a ella le gusta sobarse su cabecita contra tu cuello. Ella se parece mucho a Dave - su quijada, labios, forma de la cara, piernas y pies. Mientras Nathan parece mucho a la mamita, Stephanie es la nina de papito.

We brought Stephanie home on Saturday, and she has been doing well and drinking plenty of milk, and she is gaining back most of the weight she lost since being born. Jackie is still recovering from her C section.

Nosotros trajimos a Stephanie a la casa el Sabado, y ella esta bien y tomando mucha leche. Ella ha recuperado el peso perdido desde que nacio. Jackie se esta recuperando de su cesarea, tambien.

Nathan is doing his part and being such a good big brother. He has blue and green binkies (we are trying to get him to give them up). When Stephanie came home she had a green binky from the hospital and Nathan decided that the green binkies were for the baby. Whenever he sees a green binky he brings it to her. Also, he rubs her cheek very gently and says "baby". Whenever we are getting ready to go somewhere in the car, he says, "baby in car" to make sure we don't forget her.

Nathan esta haciendo de su parte siendo un buen hermano mayor. El tiene chupones azules y verdes (estamos tratando de que ya no los use mas). Cuando Stephanie vino a la casa del hospital, ella estaba usando un chupon verde, y Nathan decidio que el chupon verde era de la bebita. Cuando el ve un chupon verde, el entrega este a Stephanie. Tambien, el acaricia su mejilla muy tiernamente y dice "bebe". Cuando estamos listos para ir en el carro, el dice, "el bebe en el carro" asegurandose que no vamos a olvidar al bebe en la casa.
