The Eagle has Landed
Born this afternoon at 2:55 p.m.
7 lbs, 7 oz.
We’ll be calling her Ella on the blog, so if you do know her real name, please don’t use it in the comments.
I’ll write in more detail next week about the whole experience, but for now we are just so thrilled that she is here and that she’s healthy.
We may be slightly biased, but we think she’s the most darling baby there ever was.
Thank you all for your kind comments today after Bart’s post this morning. Reading them during labor was a very pleasant distraction.
She is definitely a cutie!!! I'm so happy for you guys. Maybe she and Landon can be betrothed. 🙂 Lauree
Congratulations! She looks beautiful and very alert. Can't wait to hear more about today. Blessings to you, Bart, and Enna

I am so ridiculously happy that your baby looks like a real human baby and not something totally creepy. Way to go on that!
Also way to go on recommending Little Dorrit. We started watching it with Eric's grandma tonight, and we are big fans.
She looks like a keeper! Someone explain the whole confidentiality thing on blogs. We give some names, but we withhold others. I'm a slow learner, I guess. Anybody else confused?
Congrats, congrats! I am just so happy for you! She is darling–no doubt about that. I hope you are doing well. Take care of you and your beautiful baby girl!
If you ever have a baby boy you'll have to call him Razo.
Congrats! Does she have red hair, or is that just the picture? She is a total cutie.
How exciting! I remember those days fondly! Enjoy them; she looks beautiful…
Congratulations! She looks beautiful. Can't wait to see more of her in the coming weeks and months on the blog!
Congratulations! She's really cute, and trust me, I don't say that about every baby. If you want to email me her real name, I'd love to know 😉
I just cannot get over the preciousness. Congratulations a million times!!!
Congrats!!!!! She is beautiful!!
From a random reader in Pennsylvania, congratulations! She is indeed very darling.
Congratulations! She's a cutie!
Wow! A week past due and only 7-7?! That's amazing! But I'm glad your little angel finally decided to give you guys a shot at being parents. Maybe she was just reconsidering her level of commitment to mortality… 😛
