She Is Finally here

After a rough pregnancy the day that alot of us have been waiting for finally arrived. Blakely Rhyan Gomez Is here, she was born thursday Jan 8th at 5:13 pm. She was 6lb 13oz 20 inches long.




Today, sunday, she is 3 days old and she looks completely different than she did the day she was born. Its amazing how fast these past few days have gone by. While Karen was at the hospital I went down to the cafeteria to get some lunch and there was a guy sitting at the table next to me. We started talking and he told me about his two daughters and how he still remembered when his oldest was first born.
He gave some advise... to take alot of pictures because kids grow up fast and time will fly in front of my eyes. He also told me not to ever turn my back on my children because there is not ever going to be a good enough reason of why I shouldn't support what they do. I thanked the guy for the advise and now i can see what he meant about everything he told me.
Memories are worth a million smiles, and a picture can and will make it even more priceless. Today we gave Blakely her first bath at home. It was exciting and scary at the same time. Karen started, I came in to help and then Nonnie came in to finish up. This is a once in a lifetime experience, yes she will continue to receive baths for the rest of her life, but the first one only happens once.

I am excited about this new chapter in my life and I cant wait for all those first time every-things that are yet to come.

here are a few pics of her first times so far
