She's Here!

29 hours of contractions later, Connie gave birth to Emilia Ying-Zhi Sakurada at 9:36 am this morning.


It was time to cut the cord, and begin a new dependent life outside the womb.


Emilia weighed in at 7 lbs 2 oz including a full head of hair.  She measures in at 19-3/4" in length.


She fortunately looks a lot more like Connie than me.

 

Mommy and baby are doing great.

 

Thanks to everyone for keeping us in your thoughts.  Stop by sometime, and check out the new kid.  We're interviewing for babysitters.

  5. Thanks!! We're really excited she's finally arrived and that the labor went pretty well for her.

    Christine: Yup.. without epidural! Don't ask me why, it's a distant blur now. =)
