She's here.........

Welcome, Sophie Anne-Marie

Weighing in at a whopping 9lbs 8oz and 22 in. long,

It took her a while to get her move on but once she did she wasn't wasting any time.  My first "real" contraction happened at 9:15pm Jan 17th and she made her appearance at 11:06pm. This was my first all natural birth no pain meds and while I was hoping I would have the courage to do it this time around. I didn't anticipate not having a choice in the matter lol...It was a great experience despite the pain and I am a proud mommy of a big healthy baby girl!!!!!
