Our brand new bundle of joy!

She's here! Adele Ryann Stark joined us at 5:35 P. M. Saturday the 12th. She is 8 lbs. 4 oz. and 19 inches long.
We've loved getting to know her. Josh and I can see differences from Ella already! It's crazy, when you have one child you just assume that's how they'll all turn out. We're excited for the new journey this will bring us on. So far we know that she likes to eat and sleep...




For the women who wanted a quick recap of the birthing story:
Got to the hospital at 9:45 A.M. to be induced, I started at 3 cm. I was in a bed and got hooked up to Penicillin and Pitocin at 11. Got the epidural about 11:30. Layed there until 3, when they decided to break my water. By this time I had only dilated about 2 cm. Only dilated 1 cm that next hour. After that first hour everything else came fast and furious. I started pushing at 5:30 and she was here at 5:35. Such a huge contrast from Ella! Thank-you Adele for being fast....thank-you Ella for paving the way :)
More pics to come soon!

What a beautiful baby girl! Gosh, you forget how tiny they are huh?! Glad this one went quickly for you! I am hoping to cut my pushing time at least in half the next time around too! I can't wait to meet her! Maybe Emi and I will come by and visit once you've had time to settle in and all that! I'll give you a call after the holidays! Congratulations and I hope you guys have a wonderful Christmas!
