Michala Has Arrived

At 3:45 Wednesday morning I awoke to Elizabeth’s voice and the sound of dripping water. “I think my water just broke,” she said. I retrieved a towel and informed her “I’m not ready for this.”

We arrived at the hospital just before 6:00 AM and Michala was born at 4:55 PM. She was 7 pounds 4 ounces, 20 1/4 inches long, and quite possibly the cutest baby ever.
