On St. Patrick's Day, March 17, 2008 our little angel came into the world 3 weeks early at 5:51 am weighing in at 6 lbs 11.5 oz and 20.5 in long. My water broke the day before while the rest of the fam was at church. 18 hrs and 13 Popsicles later she arrived much to the delight of her parents! Daddy was (not so) secretly praying for a St. Patty's Day baby so he could continue the Duncan family tradition of huge St Patty's Day birthday parties he so enjoyed growing up (his beloved Papa Duncan was also born on March 17). He already has her hooked on Irish songs and can't wait for her to get a little older so they can build a shamrock-covered hot rod together!:) Unfortunately that first week was pretty much a blur for me due to sleep deprivation and some really good pain killers but all I knew was I had my pint-size new best friend with me and couldn't possibly want for more....
