It's a girl!! Nora Alene Atkinson was born today at 11:48 am. Nora was 6 lbs 12 oz. and 19 1/4 inches long. Momma and baby are doing great. Krystal's labor only lasted 3 hours and she did awesome. I think the comment made by our nurse after the delivery pretty much summed it all up when she said "Krystal looks like a princess but gives birth like a horse!" Ha ha ha! A couple of hours after the birth, I went and picked up Victoria and brought her back to the hospital to meet her new little sister. It was kind of an emotional time for Victoria. She didn't like when the baby cried and she's not too sure yet about having to share her mommy. At one point she said "Victoria want to go home now. Mommy drop baby on the chair, Okay?" By the time we left the hospital she had warmed up a little bit and even attempted to give Nora a little kiss but kind of chickened out at the last second. Anyway, Krystal will post more of the details when she gets home but I wanted to at least post of few pics cause the grandparents are dying to see their new granddaughter.

I can't wait to hear the details!Ava came super fast too (even with being induced)!
I am sure Victoria will warm up soon- just keep her involved (having her get a diaper for Nora, and stuff like that), Congratulations!!!
Man, you have some fantastic birth stories to tell Nora when she's older! 'Your mom is a princess horse and your sister wanted us to drop you in a chair.' I love Victoria!
I want to bring you food and a gift whenever you're up for it. No rush.

You look so good Krystal! Congrats on your sweet little girl, she is so beautiful and I love the name Nora!
I can't believe the nurse said that, that cracks me up!! Cograt's, you are going to LOVE having 2 little girls. Isabella still has her jealous moments with EVA...but for the most part they are inseperable and LOVE each other to death!
