Birth story: I went into labor around 8pm on Thursday, November 15th. It was a long, sleepless night laboring at home. In the morning, we dropped Chloe off at our friends' house, and around noon we headed to the hospital. I got an epidural around 4pm, and then Danny and I got some much needed rest, and ordered pizza from Papa John's. At around 10pm, I was fully dilated, and at 11:45pm on November 16th, miss Tatum was born. It was such a better birth experience than Chloe's, and I am just so happy that I had a successful VBAC. We are just obsessed with this little girl, and it is so fun to have a newborn again. She was perfect and healthy, weighing 7lbs 13oz, and was 20 inches long. She latched on right away, so nursing has been a breeze. We are so in love. Here are the pics...

Chloe was in good hands at Karl and Kristin's. Thanks so much, you guys are the best!
Danny delivered the baby... such a neat experience.
The next day, Chloe came to the hospital to meet her baby sister for the first time. She was so excited, and she knew it was a special occasion. She kept giving Tate kisses the whole time.
It's official. We are a family of four.
Proud daddy

Well, baby Tate, welcome to the family. You are so loved already.
