So, my niece is finally here! After hours and hours of labor, Lori
finally delivered a healthy baby girl, Laila Ann, at 5:38 a.m. today,
Sept. 28th.
She weighed in at a whopping 9lbs 4oz, and she is 21 inches long.
To
tell you about the experience of watching her be born and going through
every emotion thinkable would be too much for my very tired mind. Just
know that it was amazing and scary and sad . . . When she was born,
there wasn’t a dry eye in the room. It’s an experience that’s sort of
indescribably amazing.
So she’s here in this world now. Keep
Lori et al in your thoughts as she recovers and they learn how to be
parents! 
They’re going to be great!

Turned my whole world upside down.
Layla, you’ve got me on my knees, Layla.” ~ Eric Clapton
