IT'S A GIRL!!! Meet Acadia Ann Vogel

Acadia Ann Vogel was born on August 28th at 9:42 pm. She weighed 7 lbs 2 oz and was 20 inches long.

It all started with Chris's water breaking at 12:00 am after a solid 1 hour of sleep. The good thing is we put a plastic protective sheet on our bed the night before. :) At 4:45 am we headed to the hospital. 12+ hours later Chris started pushing (6 pm). After 3.5 hours of hard pushing we rushed into the OR and with some help from the doctors Acadia came out to say hello.

Below are some pictures of our little bundle of joy. I'm in awe of my wife and the proudest papa in the world.

Less than a day later and Chris looks amazing. I love watching her being a mom.


I like to think she's already a "Daddy's Girl"



The hospital staff is amazing at Mass General, they went out of their way to make all of us feel comfortable. They even set Mary up in the waiting room with a cot and posted the above sign to keep people out last night.


Acadia is a very loved gal already. She can't wait to meet all her grandparents, great grandparents, aunts, uncle and cousins.

Why the name Acadia? Chris and I love Acadia National Park for starters. The name itself is just very unique and fitting for us and her. We already loved her before she was born.
