Here are some more photos of Emily, taken a couple hours after birth. By this time she had taken her first bath and was showing us that she had developed a taste for her fingers. 🙂

Mommy and I are slowly adjusting to life with a newborn. We came home from the hospital yesterday, and gave Emily a tour of her home. She wasn’t very excited by that, though she slept just fine in her bassinet.

Welcome to the World, Little One

Here’s the star of the show. She was born on January 15 at 3:39 in the afternoon. She weighed in at 6 lbs. 9 oz. and was 20 inches long. Mom and daughter are doing well. Mom was a trooper and did an amazing job through labor and delivery.

On a side note I watched the gory details and managed to stay upright (thanks to adrenaline and caffeine). Childbirth was amazing!

And we are slightly biased, but Rachelle and I are convinced she is the sweetest, most precious little girl. And we can’t wait to introduce her to her family and friends.
