Our healthy baby boy was born this afternoon at our home, in a beautiful water birth. Mommy and Daddy are both doing well, and so is our son -- who awaits his name as we get to know him better! May post birth photos later, but not tonight. Gotta try feeding again and get some rest.Our friend and doula Leah was so wonderful and at my prior request baked a birthday cake after the birth that we can share with friends and family who come visiting. We lit a symbolic candle for our child on his first day of life, and I ate the whole delicious slice!

Oh, I'm so glad that those pictures of baby and Jeff came out well. I hope you find more "treasures" on the camera. I'm so glad I could capture such a memorable event.
Love to you all!
