Welcome Baby Clare!!

Well, Baby Clare finally made her arrival on Tuesday, February 19 at 4:57 p.m. She was a whopping 8 lbs 15.3 oz and 20 1/2 inches long. Mitch and I think she is pretty adorable with the round cherub cheeks and the strawberry blonde hair, which she has a lot of and it is very red. No wonder why she stayed in so long and why my labor was pretty extensive. We had to stay in the hospital an extra night due to the strain the size of Clare put on her Mom during delivery but as the doctors told us she is one healthy "BIG" girl. Let's just say no one on the medical staff could believe that I delievered such a large baby. I will post a more detail post later along with some pictures.
