Welcome to Kate Corinn Deaver!



Raking the Atchisons' leaves is great fun, especially when Maris calls to go in for a labor check at 2:45 pm. Last night the decision was to break Maris' water at 5:30 pm. She took a long dip in the hot tub and then they started a bit of pitocin to get the contractions moving along. They got an epidural going after a bit and at 2:30 am it was time to push. When Maris was told to push, she pushed. Kate came out not long after that at 3:08 am. We all took a nap from 5:30 to 7:30. Now begins the rest of Kate's precious life. That's all for now friends!

You forgot something important--how big was she? (When I asked Shawn, he said he hadn't even thought of that. I kindly pointed out that I'm a girl and he's not.) Enjoy your precious little girl!
