Ida Mae Hiesterman

Ida Mae was born May 17, 2014 at 7:33 am.  She was 8 lbs 7 1/2 ounces and was 20 inches long.

Dan looks more tired than I do!

Our first visitors were Dan's parents and sister Kate.  They brought Lorena.  She proceeded to ignore Ida and would cry if she got near me or tried to hold her!



The next day Lorena finally warmed up to me.


Clay Center provided a fancy meal for us before we went home.  We had cheeseburgers, baked potatoes, salad, and dessert.  


We came home the day after Ida was born, on May 18.  I was feeling good so there was no need to stay another night.


Lorena proceeded to get into lots of trouble once we got home. Her new thing is dumping toilet water on herself.  She also gets into lots of mischief while I'm nursing.  She stands on the end table and looks out the window and says "daddy".  She can see him working in his shop from our living room window.



My parents came to see us a few day after Ida was born.  It's always good to see them.  Lorena warmed right up to them and really liked the attention.




Overall, Ida has been a wonderful baby!  I will post all the details of the birth another day.  I also have a another post to do about having a full term baby versus a preemie.  Having a full term baby is a walk in the park once you have gone through the trials of having a preemie!
