Owl love you forever. Columbus Baby Photography

Tell us about that first moment when you saw your baby.

Andrea – Overwhelming relief, joy, love, and just profound happiness.

Adam – The first moment I saw her actually took a little goading from the labor and delivery nurse during the pushing phase.  I saw the crown of her tiny little head, but it was definitely not the first look I was expecting.

What was your baby’s birth weight and length?

7lbs 3oz and 20″

Is there a story behind your baby’s name?

We were looking for another “A” name to go with Andrea and Adam and after trying out a number of names it just seemed like the one that fit best.

Give us the scoop. What has surprised you the most about parenthood?  Are there any funny stories or firsts that you’d like to share?

Andrea – I never thought I could feel such a strong drive to sacrifice myself to do anything for my little Aidy Bug.

Adam – The poop. A little bit of the pee, but mostly the poop.  Also I always thought that I would break babies when I held them and frankly never really liked to hold them.  With her it has been the complete opposite and I can’t get enough snuggles.

She has a wonderful tendency to involuntarily (we’re giving her the benefit of the doubt) flick us off.

What did you like best about your experience with Crystal Jo?

It was amazing to work with Crystal Jo again and to have her steadying hand get some amazing pictures while we were walking around shell shocked from our first few days of parenthood.
