Bela's Birth & Hospital Stay
















































































We were supposed to have our csection at 9:30a on Valentine's Day, but due to 2 other mother's delivering, we were bumped back and Bela was born at 12:54pm. She weighed the most out of all of my babies, 6lbs 15oz and was a little over 19 inches long. There is still debate over what her eye color is going to be. Sometimes we think blue and sometimes brown.
It was by far the best csection I have ever had. Everyone was great!! We had one nurse that was really beyond rude, but beyond that, everyone was great and Bela stayed with us in the room the whole time. She is adorable.
We had a hard time picking out a name for her. We always use some sort of family name, but with it being Valentine's Day, thought we would celebrate the occasion. Bryan served his mission in Brazil and he loved his time there. So, after a lot of thought we first named her Bela Rose - which Bela means beautiful in Portuguese and rose for the middle name. Then, literally 5 minutes after leaving the hospital, both of us did not feel quite right about the name, and changed it to Bela Rosa - which are both Portuguese and mean beautiful rose in Portuguese. We had to go back to the hospital to refill out the paperwork.
She is adorable though and the whole family is in love with her!
