Jane Elise Black

Well, Jane came about 5 days after her due date predicted (July 23rd, 2010)... and she was a lovely chubby 8 lbs. 6 oz. and 20 inches long. The boys and I had been staying in Wenatchee since July 1st, wanting to make sure we were close to the hospital and all... my parents were re-modeling their upstairs floors when we got there :) crazy for a little while!!! We went on walks every morning and enjoyed our time with gramma and grandpa immensely :) in the end, we were glad we were close since we labored less than 3 hours and were only at the hospital for maybe 2 of those 3! (Much better than being in the car and worrying about making it! :) goodness!) We had a midwife who delivers at the hospital this time and it was incredible. She was so wonderful and knowledgeable as well as helpful! Made the whole experience better! Jane arrived a healthy gorgeous little girl and we are SOOOO blessed by her addition to our family! She is such a sweet baby and at 1 week old is already in compliance with a sleeping schedule! Praise Jesus for His abundance on our family! We are soooo blessed and thankful! I can't say enough about how different it is to have a girl, and how much I am loving it... it even makes me love the boys more. I am just a lovey mess apparently :) We are so glad to be home and together as a family.
