She's here!!!!

Hi, everyone --

We're all back home and recovering from the big event. Margaret Sophia was born Sunday morning at 9:36 am. I'll post more details and pictures in a couple of days, but for now, here are the basics --

20 inches long
7.4 lbs
fuzzy dark hair on her head
beautiful beautiful beautiful!

Mom and Dad are thrilled but tired.

Thanks to everyone for your thoughts and wishes. They've meant so much to me in the past few weeks that I can't really even begin to express my gratiude.

This is by far the coolest thing I have ever ever done in my life.

Yay!! Congratulations! What a beautiful name. I hope you're feeling okay. When you're up to vistiors let me know, even if that means two or three months from now. ;)

Aww... congratulations! Glad everyone is doing well.

Sophia is a lovely name. We were leaning toward using it, when we thought we might have a girl. :-)

Take good care of yourself and that baby!

i just finally got by the computer when it was working well enough to comment, but misterx let me know as soon as he saw this on his friends page. i hope you're catching up on your rest some (sleeping when the baby sleeps) and that things continue to go smoothly. right now you're in a stark raving amazing part of your life. i remember it, and i'm happy for you.
