Another human enters the world.

Amy waits patiently for Dr. Wujek to arrive to break her water.

After a few hours of not much progress, Dr. Wujek decides to start some pitocin... just to get things going!

Pitocin worked like a charm. Amy labored, and walked around the floor for a few hours. Then got an epidural. And some time and pushing hard through three contractions, then out came Paisley Mae Freeman. Paisley did have the cord wrapped around her neck but Dr. Wujek was able to take it off no problem.

Paisley is a little swollen and bruised up... weighing in at 7lbs 8oz.

I was asked if I wanted to bath her, I couldn't pass it up. It's always a little weird to hold around their necks like that.

All cleaned up, ready to head home. This is a rare catch of her wide eyed and awake.

Amy caught this nose to nose time. I can't believe I have three girls...

Dark hair like Papa.

Grammie getting to come and see her for the first time.

Hanging out in her plastic bed.

My lovely bride with our third little lady. She did amazing!

Grandpa getting his first glimpse at the little one.

Gracie loves her new sister, isn't totally stable in the concept of "gentle"... but she'll get there!

This picture sums up Gracie's feelings about Paisley so far.

And this picture sums up Esthers feelings about Paisley so far!

We are now the "Freeman Five"!
