Welcome Baby!















Last night at 9:11pm we had our sweet Avery come. She weighed 7.9 pounds and was 20 inches long. Sarah is doing great! We were both half asleep when the nurse came in and told us the baby was coming. From the time she broke her water until the baby came, call it 41 minutes max!

Sarah is doing very well and is SO relieved she is finally here. These last two weeks have been complete drudgery. I think if she heard me tell her to "go shopping" or "get a massage" one more time, she would have killed me. Funny how pregnancy changes things. FYI- For all those Husbands that read this (my guess is 1 or 2 and Lee for sure), shopping and massages are a unbelievable way to make your wife happy and induce labor.

Sarah is already up walking around, chatting with her nurse friends, and loving her new girl. Mom and Baby are doing great! Thanks for your support. Here are some pics to enjoy:
