Tell us about that first moment when you saw your baby.-
I cried like a baby! Lol. She was crying, and once they put her on my chest, she stopped & was just staring at me. I’ve been smitten ever since;-)
Can you please share the story about your hospital neighbors? 🙂 I love this!
A little background: I was due on 12/3, my brother and his wife were due on 12/5. They scheduled their induction on 12/10 at 8 am, mine was up in the air.Having said that, I went in to the hospital on 12/9, and was finally induced in the middle of the night (12/10). When they got to the hospital for their induction, they were in the adjoining room!! We seriously couldn’t make that up! I had Abigail on 12/10, they had Owen just after midnight on 12/11, and their first born son, Jack, turned 4 on 12/12. So, there are three Columbus kids in our family, and their birthdays are 12/10, 12/11, and 12/12:)
What was your baby’s birth weight and length?
Weight: 6 lbs, 15 1/2 oz, 19.75 in
Is there a story behind your baby’s name?
I found the name Abigail, and ran the name by Rich. He loved it, and in his mind, case closed, it’s Abigail! We later found out that Abigail means “fathers joy,” which, if you’ve ever seen him around kids, is quite fitting.

Honestly, I’ve been an Aunt since I was in seventh grade, and have been the cool babysitter ever since… Nothing prepares you for how exhausting it can be!

Clara. Newborn.
Cutie pie!
Santa is coming sooooooon! Oh giggles.
Adorable family travelled all the way from Minnesota for these pretty pictures. (And to visit family too, but how about these pictures?! Hehehe)
Here are a few fun facts about Clara…
Tell us about that first moment when you saw your baby.
Mom: Immediate, overwhelming and all-encompassing LOVE!!
Dad: We waited to find out the gender of our baby. Before she was born I wasn’t sure if I wanted a boy or girl. When Clara was born I knew the moment couldn’t have been any more perfect. I had no idea one person could feel so much love, it just overwhelmed me.
A friend of Erica’s mentioned the name in passing and when Erica mentioned it to Tyler we were both in love. As an added bonus, there is a famous composer named Clara Schumann, and with Erica being a music teacher, it was a happy coincidence!
Mom: I really wasn’t sure that I would instinctively know what she would need when she cried, but it hasn’t been that hard! I think the biggest challenge has just been getting used to all the things that are now our ‘new normal’. As for funny stories, when Clara was just a couple weeks old, I was changing her diaper and she sneezed…let’s just say she got some pretty good distance!
Dad: I think what has surprised me the most is how nothing seems to compare to when you see your child smile. I don’t know why but all the funny stories I can think of seem to revolve around my daughter pooping on my wife! I remember coming back from picking up some takeout to see my wife standing in the kitchen with no pants! She had this look of panic on her face and immediately she says, “There is poop on the couch!” I immediately go to clean it up. It seems that every time I left the house, my daughter blew out a diaper on my wife. She immediately went to take care of our daughter, but didn’t want to track poo that was on her pants all over the house so she dropped trow.
Mom: Every passing month comes with so many great ‘firsts’ and even more excitement, so I can only say my favorite time is now. I love to watch her learn new things and smile when she figures out something new.
