Nanna was the midwife! *update* pic added

[crsta33]

Riley Owen arrived at 7:57 p.m. last night (a little more than an hour after I posted my water broke!) My mother caught him and the midwives arrived about 10 minutes later. We are doing great. I'm very sore and the afterpains are awful...I can relate to how Jacob felt after wrestling the angel...exhausted, sore, and extremely blessed.

He weighs 8 lbs 8 oz is and 20 inches long. Blonde hair, blue eyes and looks like my FIL (who is very handsome)
