Here she is! Wow! Good thing I snuck that prego post in on Saturay!
We haven't decided on the name yet, but she's responding well to angel and sweetheart. :)
I had contractions all day Sunday, about 4 pm I decided she was going to make it before midnight. So I cleaned the house! If I was going to 'labor' on the Sabbath, I might as well get a clean house out of the deal! :)
I packed my bags (K packed her own and J-boy's bags w/o much supervision - I sure hope they have what they need!!), Joseph was making dinner, so I hopped in the bathtub to relax. There are few things I enjoy more than a bubble bath with music, so I indulged and basked in lavendar scented bubble bath and Chopin Nocturnes. And, of course, shaved my legs. :) When I got out of the tub things sped up a little faster than I'd anticipated -- we left the kids with our fabulous neighbors to wait for Grandma and Grandpa and headed to the hospital at 7:30. My nurse-midwife made it in to check me at 7:55, and our little lady made her grand appearance at 8:01!! Kind of surreal!
We're doing really well - she's perfect! I can't wait for K and J-boy to come meet her. :)

Tara! She's absolutely beautiful! Can't believe she couldn't put in an appearance a mere 48 hours earlier! So glad things went well and that your legs were clean-shaven for the blessed event. Kendra and I will be there on August 4th -- we can't wait!
