At the birth

 

 

 

See, dad was there for the birth, okay, maybe not in the literal sense, more the electronic version of dad...

Brand New Baby Isaac

 

 

 

Isaac was born at 3:48am, Thursday, October 1st. He was 7 pounds 8 ounces and 20.75 inches long. Mom had been in labor since Tuesday afternoon and arrived at the hospital just after midnight on Thursday. This was our first completely natural childbirth - no pitocin or epidural. Dad was there via skype. In attendance were Christine, Deb, Grandma Audrey and Jess. Carolyn was there in spirit, but didn't quite get that, "we are at the hospital", meant that there would be a baby here in 3 hours.

Fancy Food

Didn't these ladies do a wonderful job with the food. There were sandwiches in fun shapes, too.

Fancy Nancy Birthday Party

Elena had a wonderfully Fancy 7th Birthday Party hosted by Christine, Carolyn, Deb, Jess, and Grandma's Audrey and Laura. There were 12 little princesses in attendance - which was a full house....

That's our little Lucy in the middle, I don't think the crown came off for 3 days.

The servers decided that everything should be done in courses, mostly because they were trying to eat up time. Apparently everything went a little more swiftly than planned and there was some fear that they would have 12 princesses with nothing to do near the end of the party. I left the hospital a day early so that I could at least see the party. 2 day old Isaac and I made a few quick appearances.
