Welcome dear little one. We are glad to have you. We are so thankful you safely made it.

Elinor Marie arrived into Pete and Nicole's hands at 11:55am on Monday April 9th, 2012. She was greeted by Auntie Jody, and Midwives Kathy and Melanie.

Since she was a waterbirth, she floated/rested/relaxed along with Pete and Nicole until well after her umbilical cord was cut. Next she was dried off, and placed naked on Nicole's belly. Measurements were taken (8 pounds. 21 inches.), then she nursed and slept away the amazing excursion.

We look forward to this thing called LIFE with you.
Xoxo, Nicole and Pete
