2009 has been an exciting year for the Knoll family. Kurt and I discovered in January that we would be adding to our family. We joyfully went forward with planning for our little one and got away on a "babymoon" before things got too hectic. We traveled the Caribbean Seas on a Carnival Cruise ship for a week. We spent the summer attending baby showers and preparing the nursery. One week before our due date, my water broke and we knew it was time. We stayed at home as long as possible and headed to the hospital during normal business hours. By 3 o'clock, our little girl had arrived. Siena Rose was born at 3:11pm weighing 5 lbs. 12 oz. and stretched 19 inches long. Labor & delivery went so smooth and we were swarmed by friends who were eager to meet her. We took our baby home to meet Milo, our lovable dog, on Saturday, September 26th.

Eight weeks have gone by and I think we finally have a grasp of what this is all about. Siena is learning about the daytime and sleeping better at night. Milo loves her and watches over her but never bothers her when she is sleeping. We have had lots of family in town to visit which has been a blessing and our extended family here in Tennessee has never left our side. They consider her one of their own. We consider ourselves truly blessed to have such a beautiful and healthy little girl to share with the world.
