Well everyone, here she is! Can you believe all that dark hair? I mean it literally is BLACK. So black that the nurse bathing her yesterday asked Jeff if his wife was hispanic. Actually, I think the consensus is that she looks amazingly like Chance, but with the dark hair. I think she'll end up losing is and it will come in a tad bit lighter, but time will tell.

Things went great all things considered. I had some issues with the epidural this time that I didn't last time. Not enough at first, then too much, etc., but in the end it was fine. I only had to push for about 10 minutes through two contractions, so I can't complain.

Thankfully, my sister in law and mother in law have taken over Chance duties. He came to visit last night and other than saying 'baby' once in a while and giving her one quick kiss on the head, he was relatively uninterested. He found the movable bed with a bar to hang off of much more exciting than a little baby that doesn't move I suppose. We will see him again tonight, so we'll see how round 2 goes. I'm sure it will be a whole new adventure tomorrow when we're home.

I will post more pictures soon and keep everyone informed. Otherwise, we're doing great!!
