Elizabeth Grace made her way into the world 5:45 am Wednesday, December 10th at 7.15 pounds and 19 inches in length. We were induced on Tuesday at 2:00 pm. Due to what the doctors call an "unsatisfactory heart rate", and the fact that it took me hour to progress from 4 cm to 4.5 cm, they decided to call an emergency C-section. All turned out well, despite the fact that she had passed meconium in the womb. Kaiser Morse took extremely good care of us, and our overall experience was a positive one.

Elizabeth is perfect in every way.Rich and I think she has my eyes, but his nose, mouth, and chin. It will be fun to see how she changes. She hates to be swaddled, but this little one loves to eat! As today was our first day home, we are trying to get into some sort of normal routine (yeah, like it's really up to us!) and are trying to sleep as much as possible.
