Born at 7:47 a.m. this morning (2/16/09). 21.25″ and 9 pounds 8 ounces. She’s strong & healthy and we’re all doing great. Typing one-handed now so here are a couple of quick pics from this afternoon.
Editing to correct length: 21.25″, not 20″. Measured in centimeters and I screwed up the conversion. Sent it out wrong in email earlier, too. Oops. Not that Josie cares…
More later, of course.
Woo-hoo! Can’t help but notice that she’s already doing the “pull my finger” trick.
And, Nelly … lookin’ like she’s the one who orchestrated it all … too cute!
You’ve got a lovely family there, woman!
Rock on!

Nellie … excuse my error (walking away with tail between legs).
OMGosh!! She is darlin’. Good to hear everybody is well. How’s mom feelin’? Tired? LOL
You are the only woman I know that can pop out a kid and walk over to the computer to post it!!
You are a better woman than I!!
So happy that you are both strong, healthy, and happy. I am envious of your wonderful home birth. Hope to meet the lovely lady in person soon.

Congratulations to you Diane, and the entire family. The older children are enthralled. I love those photo’s.
Josie Rae is one strong healthy looking baby. Nellie must be so happy to have another girl in the family. I am sure everyone is. Perfect work there Mum, and I’d expect nothing less. I hope you had some time for a nap.
She’ll be helping in the garden this summer for sure.
Hugs for you all.
Josie is so cute. Nelly looks like she really wants to help. Glad everyone is doing well. Take Care Love Rose
Gorgeous little girl she is, Josie Rae, as well as her big sister Nellie.
What beautiful welcome she has in these pix! You are truly blessed and thanks for sharing!
Yay!!! Congratulations … she is absolutely BEAUTIFUL!!!
Josie is precious and beautiful and just adorable. Of course I could be prejudiced. I cannot wait to see more photos and come down to see you all in person soon. Love Ya
More later, of course.
It’s MORE time!
