Forget March Madness...Harlow Rose is here!

Early morning cuddles...
The 2018 Morin March Madness brackets are here!
Friday night we got a text that we had been waiting for...Meg's was starting to chart her contractions. Saturday morning, St. Patty's day, we got another test at 5ish am. Chad and Megs were admitted into Troy Beaumont and Baby Z. was on the way! Ben was the first to arrived. The hospitals still have a ban from kiddos to come and visit because of the flu so I was frantic with excitement at home looking for a babysitter at 7:30 Saturday morning! Chances were not looking good but Bria to the rescue! She made it here by 8:30 and I was so blessed to be able to go to the hospital as well.

Awwww, I love these two. Ben is so, so proud of his sister.
We were all in the waiting room and as Mom and Stan got off the elevator we heard the nursery jingle to signal a baby had born. We weren't positive it was Baby Z. but we all had a pretty good hunch. A little later, sure enough, Chad Dad came down the hallway with the exciting new...Harlow Rose has made her debut!
Chad handed us each this announcement and that's how we found out it's a GIRL!!!
Here first round of stats:
All the feels...
The proud grandparents! Grandpa and Grandma Zelinski and Uitti! YAY!!






Mama Megs, making it look so easy. You rock, sister. Twenty minutes of pushing and you deliver a perfect, beautiful angel. We are beyond proud and happy for you!
 Harlow, we are so thrilled that you are here baby girl.

 Look at that perfect face and already she has flowing, beautiful Aveda hair! 
 Papa and Grandma U. welcome their 5th grandbaby!! They are pros at this!


 I get to be an Aunite!!! I LOVE her!

Chad's twin brother, Ryan, meets Harlow!
 Chad Dad in love with his little girl...
 A beautiful family of 3!
Ben was so patient but he was chomping at the bit to hold her. She is so, SO sweet!

 I posted lots of pics of my Ben with Harlow. Ben has been anticipating and praying for this moment for a long time. Ben, you are so full of love for your family. I love you.

 Great Grandma Budd, Great Aunt Cathy, and Great Uncle Tom meet sweet Harlow!

On Sunday, Ben and I  took turns going up to the hospital. Thank goodness we are co close! Ben took Elle and Drew to swim. He took this pic and it made me laugh. They are FIRST in line to go in for their lesson. This has NEVER happened. Funny, they are first when I am not there. Call it like it is...I am not the punctual one of the group.
Luke and I were off to his school's Mother/Son bowling! I LOVE this sweet boy. I can't believe that I was in the hospital with him almost 8 years ago holding him for the first time. I love you so much Luke.

Ben took off for the hospital. I was stacking the dishwasher when I saw these three start a game of street hockey. Harlow, we need you home sweet girl...Ellie needs a girl on her team :)
 Drew, look at that smile!
