Lucy Anna

Lucy was very punctual to her first appointment - her due date was June 10th, and she arrived at 12:01 pm on June 10th.  Contractions started around 4am. We started timing them around 5am. Our good friend, "Aunt" Phyllis, came over to watch Mikayla. We got to the hospital a little after 8am. We almost got sent home at 10:30am (because things weren't progressing rapidly enough). Lucy heard that and turned up the steam. Active labor started at 11am. Lucy was born at 12:01 pm. While we were in the hospital, Mikayla had a fabulous time playing with her friends Sarah, Noah, Dawson, and Claire, under the watchful eyes of our friends Phyllis, Lori, and Jenny.

One last family photo before leaving for the hospital.

Angela looks like she's all ready to go, but it's already over.

Someone told us we should probably wash her feet after this.

All strapped in and set to go. Lucy says, "Thanks for the carseat, Ethan!"

At home in her own crib.

I guess the bars are there for a reason.

Someone's happy to have Baby Sister home.

"Back to you!"
