Just wanted to let everyone know that our new baby girl is here!

Adelaide Victoria was born on February 28 at 4:37am after about 4 hours of labor. She surprised us by being a few days early. My due date wasn't until March 3 and I am usually late. It was nice not to have to wait this time. She weighed 7lbs., 4oz. and measured 20in. long. The delivery went well, no complications, praise God! We are home, resting and nursing now.

Thanks so much for all your prayers! My husband has pictures up on his Flickr page here.

Dawn
