Introducing....

....Our little Claire! She was born at 8:08 this morning and is just PERFECT! She weighed 8lbs and 1oz and was 21 1/2" long. After a natural labor and birth we are both recovering beautifully. I'll have more details soon, but right now I have to go kiss, smell, and love up on our new little angel. xo, Sam

How wonderful! Such a relief that she came out a healthy size baby.

I guess you will just need to put all those preemie baby cloths away.
