On July 9th at 10:39pm, Brandon and I were blessed with the arrival of our sweet little girl. She is just a miracle! Chloe Mae weighed 7 lbs 5 oz and was 19 1/2 inches long. The adventure started at our appointment with our midwife on Wednesday night; she determined that my blood pressure was too high and scheduled a medical induction for Thursday morning. We arrived at the hospital and experienced a very long day waiting for Pitocin to kick in. The actual active labor portion of our day at the hopsital went very smoothly and was very easy. I feel so lucky! Brandon kicked right into "Dad" mode. He was such an awesome support thoughout the delivery, and he is such a natural with Chloe.
Chloe is an absolute angel! She has a broken collar bone, but she has been such a brave girl. We love her so much, even if she doesn't sleep at all at night :)!
Thank you, thank you, thank you for all of the visits, texts, flowers, and phone calls. We are so grateful for our family and friends!

I don't know why but I got kind of emotional reading and looking at your pictures for this blog. It's probably because I know how overwhelmingly blessed you both feel now that Chloe has arrived and you both are a mom & dad. Congrats! She is a doll! I hope that we can make it over this weekend to see you guys. xoxo
