The Eagle Has Landed!

Jedra (not her real name) is finally here! After months of communicating solely through kicking her mother's abdomen, she decided to make her foray into the external world, and so far, she is LOVING it!

Kedra's doctor had us scheduled for an induction today, but Jedra decided that she was ready to come on her own, and labor started naturally. 4 short but intense hours later, she arrived. Other than a giant conehead (which we are told will go away by the time she is 15 or 16), she is perfect. She's a beautiful little girl, and we are in love with her already!



Kedra before labor really started - look how happy she was!



Look at the size of that head! Like a misshaped orange on a toothpick!









A few more pictures of the beautiful girls in my family.

Welcome to the world, little nameless miracle!

It seems only yesterday Jeremy came home from the hospital as "Baby Foote". He was so cute, and little and fuzzy and he made me a proud aunt for the first time. I can't believe someone I held as a newborn now has one of his own. Crazy! Congrats,
Old Aunt Margo

Congratulations, you two! She is beautiful. =) Super super jealous of the 4-hour labor. Hope you guys are getting a little more sleep than we are. Happy New Year!

So do I get a prize for telling you the secret to getting little Keremy to come out?

Adria also wants a prize for guessing the time of birth dead on.

CONGRATS! We are so excited for you guys!!

I loved the orange on a toothpick reference. But I think your baby is far more beautiful than that.
