Jane! (And graduation, visitors, etc)


Hi everybody,

Sorry for the delay.  It has been a very crazy few days.  Here is the first installment of photos.  We will post more as we take them.

Just a brief outline of the events:
Sarah's mom and both of my parents came to see Jane.
Sarah went into labor at 1AM the morning of my graduation.  You can see her below with me and our parents (minus her dad) the night prior to graduation at a dinner.  You also see her looking very pregnant in the graduation photos because we took them in advance anticipating the hectic nature of the day (even without Sarah going into labor).
I had to leave Sarah's side and her mom took over temporarily so I could graduate from medical school and be recommissioned as a Captain in the Army National Guard at that same ceremony.
Baby Jane was born at 10:57 AM the next morning by C-section at 7lbs 61/2 oz, 20 1/2 inches.
Mom and baby are both doing well now!

Lizzy was very excited when she got to see her mom.
So excited she ate about 3 cups of green beans (mom and dad brought a dinner for us to eat together and celebrate).

Lizzy loves her new sister!
