Tenley Jane Waller

Tenley Jane Waller came into the world on Sunday night at 6:58, May 27, 2012.

She's beautiful.

We don't need to go into too much detail about the labor except that things went slow for a while, then got a little worrying when the contractions came - Tenley's heart-rate kept dropping - but after some great coaching from our doula and the nurses, Erin heroically turned things around and had a natural birth.

Here are some early shots:


A few moments after birth


Weighing in at 7 pounds 12 ounces


She's got him wrapped around her fingers 


Just let me sleep for a while


She has a loud cry, likes to eat, and is very alert when awake. She looks around at everyone. And I swear she smiled at me this morning.
