Our daughter was born March 9th at 3:37 AM.
She weighed 7.3 lbs and was 20 inches long.
30 hours of labor, 3 hours pushing, no drugs, a little help from the doctor and a LOT of help from her dad and our doula and friend, Konuwena.
There is no high like this. I have done nothing else that compares. Everything before this was prep and training for this part of our lives. THIS is what it's all about. We are so happy.

Penny and Mike!!!!
Congrats from China. I had no idea you were pregnant! Devon and I have been spending the year in China and will be back in Nashvegas in August by way of SF.
Being a parent is the best achievement in my life!
Kudos Karla

Congratulations little sister! I am so proud of you, you did great and are going to be a wonderful mommy. She is beautiful (I'll pray that she doesn't have the "Russell ears"). LOL
Enjoy her.....they grow so fast. Connor and Mckenzie are looking forward to seeing their new cousin! Love you all, Ali
