Are you ready for this?

Our big, supposed to be, ten pound baby weighed in at a whimpy 8 pounds 8 ounces!

As you can see she's pretty mad about it. My feelings exactly! I almost made them put her back in so she could cook for another month.

Ok, you know I'm kidding and we love the little runt that she is. In fact, I think that would make a good middle name. Baby Runt Gallagher.

Now let's find out who the winner of the contest was...

Baby girl
born May 15th
8 pounds 8 ounces
20 inches long
10:46 p.m.

Dawn guessed a baby girl born on the 15th, 10 pounds 2 ounces and 22" inches. As far as we could tell she was the only one who guessed a girl on the 15th. If that's right then she is our winner!

Thanks to all of you for participating in my giveaway! It was very entertaining during my hour of need! We might have to have another one to figure out what to name this sweet little thing. I'll post some more photos and her birth story when I get a chance. Hopefully I'll have a few more days of couch time before I have to get back to the grindstone.

We're getting kicked out of the hospital tonight. I don't know what I will do now that the euphoria is wearing off and we'll have no crew of women ready and waiting to take care of us at every moment. Hopefully I will manage. I've done this before right?

She's beautiful! And hardly scrawny!

My doc told me my dd would be 7 1/2 pounds. She was born 2 days later and weighed 5#7oz!! Talk about little!

What a cutie!

And is "Sweetness" her real name, or just her blog name? I've wondered that about your other girls as well. Just curious.

Congratulations!

She is beautiful! I was totally expecting you to get your 10lb-er lol, but 8.8's not too bad :D

She's adorable. I know that feeling of losing the help of the nurses, but then there's the awesome thing about sleeping (or not) in your own bed.

She's a beauty! Congratulations. Has she happened to mention anything about an expected arrival to the Pacific NW? Maybe a friend she knew in Heaven who is a little slow to arrive?

In addition to telling you how beautiful your baby is, I forgot to say I'm excited that I guessed a couple of the things right for the contest. Your organizing bags looks so great. Thanks.

That's a very disappointing weight. At least her cuteness makes up for it.
Guess that means I'm the winner!
Congrats and good luck!
