The day came a little sooner than I had thought. Emily's baseless intuitions were once again miraculously confirmed. The delivery was as quick and complication free as we could have hoped for. And the end result was a beautiful.. I mean beautiful.. daughter.
She weighed in at 6 pounds 1 ounce.. light, but she is a little over 2 weeks early. Her length is 20 and 1/2 inches. She arrived into our world at close to 2 am. The baby naturally will get lots of attention, but I want to mention that Emily was absolutely amazing throughout the birthing process. I would not have held up as well. She went into this wanting a natural birth.. with no pain medication.. and she got it.. staying determined to the end.
There was no sleep up until the birth.. and very little afterwards. So I am going to keep this brief.. mostly photos of baby with one of us and then some photos of the way the world looked on the morning of her birth.
