And, our most recent addition, Adelaide at 5 weeks and a day -- first with a sleepy smile and then another sleeping shot (for size) in my arms:

Adelaide Louise

Ok, folks. I finally uploaded the pictures to Flickr of our little Adelaide's arrival. For those who haven't heard the details -- she was 8 lbs 7 oz, 21 inches and pink as anything. She is doing well, sleeping quite a bit, nursing easily and generally really sweet. Labor and delivery, as well as most of the pregnancy for that matter, were quite drama free -- a really nice way to have a baby. We arrived at the hospital about 6:30 or so, they had me walk around for a while, my water was broken at 11:00 am, I got an epidural at 3:00ish (7 cm-ish) and at 3:30 we were ready to roll. After about 15 minutes Adelaide was born -- 3:44 pm! If I had more energy I'd write a more detailed post but we are officially outnumbered around here and I am trying to rest as much as possible before Vince heads back to work.
