Eden's Arrival!


Well, she's HERE! Finally!


Eden Kay Gilliland made her debut early this morning at 2:48a.m. She was born at home in under 4 hours, and delivered by her Daddy and Grandma Jean. The Midwife was 10 minutes away, but that was just too long for her after almost 3 days with her water broke I guess. She came in weighing 7lbs, 9oz and is 21 inches long. Her and Mom and doing great, Dad (I think) has recovered from the shock, and Emma is very proud that "ENEN" is finally out of Mommy's tummy and completely SHOCKED about where she gets her milk. Apparently Emma's long term memory doesnt go back 5 months.



We'll post more pics as soon as we figure out our new camera...



Thank you to everyone who was praying for us - we needed it! It was a looooonnnnggg 3 days, but incredibly worth it!
