She's here!

At 3:38pm yesterday the doctor delivered this lovely little girl.   I probably shouldn't say little since she weighed in at 8 pounds 9 ounces and was 21 inches long!   We had no idea she was going to be quite so big.  :) We are totally in love with her even though she kept us up ALL NIGHT last night.  Now that she's sleeping peacefully today, everyone and their mom is coming in to do something in our room so there's no rest for us.   I'm just crossing my fingers that we can go home tomorrow and maybe sleep then.
