She's Here!

Jane arrived at 2:50 this morning (December 3rd). She made an abrupt entrance after only about 10 minutes of pushing! She weighed in at 7 pounds 14.6 ounces and 20.5 inches long. She has big, juicy cheeks and a head of fuzzy/curly dark hair.


She's a champion nurser. I fed her shortly after she was born and...
after a bath and a stay under the warmer, she promptly fell asleep for 5 hours. She then woke up, ate and is sleeping like the proverbial baby.
Look at these cheeks!

Congratulations to all of you, but mostly to you, April, because, let's face it, even 10 minutes of pushing a grapefruit (you know the rest) . . . is 10 minutes of pushing a grapefruit!
She looks so adorable, and so peaceful in her resting pose. I think I need to seriously consider sleeping nude and diapered! (the heat lamp wouldn't hurt either!)
Can't wait to meet her!
