We left this morning at 6:45 while it was 10 degrees outside. I was nervous that our cars wouldn't start (we have had our batteries not working well and replaced). They started up nicely and we drove to the hospital and got started. Things went fairly smoothly. Jenny didn't enjoy the pokes but overall did really great. I was watching youtube videos last night on C-section deliveries so I was excited to be able to watch. Our doctor was very kind and understanding. It was a great experience. Things went well. Claire came out fine and Jenny has been doing well (despite some low blood pressure and nausea).
Claire was born at 9:38am, weighing in at 7lbs 9oz (same as Brinley), and 20.5 in. She has been fairly calm today.
Ashlyn and Brinley were so pleased to finally meet "Baby Claire" although Brinley was still pointing to Mommy's tummy saying, "Baby! Baby!"

Tammy, as per usual, was all teary to welcome another grandchild into her family. We were so glad she could be here. She is helping to lighten our burden and allow me to spend time with Jenny in the hospital with Claire. She is such a giving mother and grandmother.
