Hi all my old bear friends and new members.   :hug:

Its been so long for me to post. Its hard getting back on when you've been gone for so long, but I think I had a valid reason.

To catch you all up... I use to post frequently, but got pregnant and had to put away my mohair and bear supplies to make way for a baby nursery. I was due March 18.
Feb. 9 I was put on bed rest, I was 3 cm dilated and 70% effaced, so I was no longer allowed to work. Every week after that I was told by my Dr that it would be soon, I was so close.... blah blah blah.... Well I made it to 38 weeks and 3 days when my Dr decided to induce me. I was not feeling contractions that I was definitely having according to the monitors and my amniotic fluid levels were low and baby was not very active. So its ironic, I was on bed rest to prevent early labor and then had to be induced.

Madison was delivered Wed. Mar 8 at 12:19 AM and was 8 pounds 6 ounces and 21 inches. I have lots more details of everything baby related on her website, www.homeevans.com

I thought I'd post a few pics on here also for you all! I know Madison has many fans already.

What a great name, Madison.  Congratulations to you and your husband, Kirsten!  It's an amazing time in your life and I'm so happy for you.  The baby is just beyond gorgeous and you look absolutely fantastic in a real goddess-like kind of wavy-haired way.  None of that tongue-sticking-out stuff in these pictures!

Enjoy this time when she's so small and squidgety because it goes so, so fast, you just won't believe it.

I'm so happy for you!!
