Sweet little Carmen Olivia was born at home with two midwives, two doulas and through an all natural birth. Geez, I bow down to mama bear! Along with Erica’s medical entourage, Joe and their third family member, Jia the dog, were present for the twenty-three hour labor that she endured. Whoa!!! After five… yes five hours of pushing, Carmen Olivia greeted the world at 3:41 am on September 18th 2012, weighing 6lbs 8oz. and 19 in. long.
Congratulations Erica and Joe (and Jia), you were amazingly patient with your sweet little angle. I wish you the best on this amazing journey of your daughter’s new life! I’m sure you’ve heard this a billion times but, “they grow so fast”. Soon, you will be calling me to plan her one-year photo session. 🙂 But for now, here’s some more of Carmen Olivia.
