Michael has blue eyes and ash blonde hair-- it is light brown with TONS of blonde in it. He has his uncle's funky ear-- it doesn't have cartilage in it, so it is super bendy. He looks just like me, down to the Klingon ridge down the center of the head.

Labour including pushing was about 8 hours or so...arrived at the birth house at 6-7 cm not even thinking I was in true labour as it really was quite managable but came in just in case Was complete and ready to push about a hour later.
Our daughter was born in the water by candlelight and I caught her..

A little over 12 hours later we came home.
Big Brother has yet to meet his new sibling as he has a cold and is staying with his granparents until he feels better.

Piper Anastasia
EDD by LMP 1/06, by ultrasound 1/12
Born on:
January 12, 2006
10:37pm
9lbs 1.8oz
20 and 3/4 in long

Was posterier, but because she spent literally NO TIME in the birth canal and was not engaged yet, I was able to turn her head when I pushed her down. An hour and 1/2 of true active labor, less than 2 minutes of pushing. Tiny tear. No epidural, no pitocin. No water birth due to her birth being so quick!

Gorgeous dark hair! Awesome nursling! Tandem is going great!!!!!!
