Khloe Sylvia Muriuki


Our Little Khloe has finally arrived! She came on Monday April 12th at 5:26pm. She weighed in at 8lbs and 11.3 oz and is 21.1 inches long! Wow! What an amazing feeling it is to have our little girl finally here. Julie and I have officially entered into the world of parenthood!
The labor took about 11 and a half hours as we had to induce on Monday morning and Julie was a rock-star mom through the whole process! She really did whatever it took to get her here naturally. We were worried for a moment that we might had to have a cesarean because she is such a big baby. Well.... you know Julie... a true Vaughters... When she heard that she was even more determined to push as hard as she needed to to have her naturally! Push she did! Out came our little girl in about 26 minutes!










Enough about us! Baby Khloe is just as cute as can be !We are still trying to figure out who she looks like more - I think there is a good combination of both of us (duh !) She definitely has Julies chin and ears, and she has my nose and and eye shape. He eyes are a bluish green right now so it will be interesting to see what color they will end up. She has been such a good eater, she literally attacks the bottle when we give it to her and eats about 4oz each sitting every three hours. She must have gotten that from me! So far far she has been healthy - we were worried that she may have a little jaundice but it appears to have gone away now. As expected she has been sleeping a lot although last night we had our first melt down experience - don't know why, but she finally got to sleep about 3:30am, maybe she was testing out her vocal cords lol! Poor little princess, it was breaking our hearts to hear her cry so hard. Today she is sleeping in her play pen and soaking up some sun by the window - she does love to sun tan just like her ma! She seems to sleep so deeply when she there!
Well that is the update so far everyone! We'll keep you all posted in the weeks, and months to come! Enjoy her pictures!
