Stats!

I was induced yesterday morning at 6:15. Got an epidural at 7:15. The Dr. broke my water at 8:00 and at 12:10 I was complete. I started pushing at 12:17 and at 12:19 Julia May arrived! Talk about a great labor and delivery!

She weighed in at 8 pounds 10 ounces and is 21.5 inches. By far our biggest baby!

I just adore her and am savoring every moment with her. Gotta love those cheeks!

I had to take these pictures of Zeb and Julia taking a nap together. How sweet!

The girls came last night to see her. Audrey had fallen asleep in the car and was therefore having a melt down. Not quite what I was hoping for but the girls were still VERY excited to see her. We are so happy!

Thanks for posting the stats and story! :) I agree that you look excellent for just having a baby. That seems to be the norm for you though, right? Cute pics sleeping by daddy, too! Glad you have her in your arms finally! Hope to see pics of the girls with her when you have time. :)

You look amazing, why do I not look like that after having a baby? She is precious and I bet her sisters love her. LOVE the sleeping photos, too bad Zeb's mouth isn't open a little too.

I don't think that there is anything that can put a daddy to sleep faster than a newborn baby. She does have sweet kissable cheeks. Can't wait to kiss em'
