New Baby

A few hours after Jesse was born, his brothers and sister came home to meet him! Lydia was happy to be home after a long day away from mommy.

Jesse Daniel, born at 5:43pm on Oct 14th. 9 lb. 13 oz and 22 1/2 inches long. A little bit of dark hair and a wrinkled forehead. Long fingers and big feet.

Not sure why this pic. went sideways on me. This is my midwife napping during my labor. She was up half the night before delivering another baby. We spent the morning playing scrabble together and we chatted through most of the afternoon. I'm glad we planned on having this baby at home as I'm not sure I ever would have thought it necessary to go to the hospital until the very end. We may have had a baby in the car at that point!
I'll get more pictures over the next few weeks.
