Jade Liberty is finally here!!!!


Wow, we waited and waited and waited, and then we waited some more. Melissa was 8 days overdue, when they decided to induce her. She went in at 8:30 on May 9, and by 4:00 May 10, still NO BABY. They decided that there was no way the baby was going to make it down the birth canal, so they sent her in for a c-section. A little after 5 p.m. Jade Liberty finally made an appearance. She weighed in at a whopping 9 lbs, 9 oz. And she was 21 1/2 inches long. So far she has barely made a peep. She is a doll, and we are so happy that everything went well. Congratulations Melissa and Nick! :-)
