Sara Pearl Francisco
Wednesday morning at 8:37, Sara Pearl Francisco entered this world. She weighed 6 pounds, 3 ounces and was 18 inches long.
She has Clark and Myra's facial features, but Eva's hair. So finally Ben and I mixed our genes. She is really sweet and mild.
I had an uneventful c-section (the best kind) and am home now after about 55 hours. It was a very pleasant experience.
She even got to stay with me in my room the whole time--unless I sent her away so I could sleep. Her jaundice wasn't bad enough for lights and she is otherwise totally healthy!! I love the quiet soft time in the hospital. Now that I'm home I feel like she's got to defend herself from all of her loving siblings' loving advances. Maybe staying in the hospital for six months is a good plan. Maybe they could teach a little baby kickboxing for self-defense.
Come to think of it, though, I think she was kickboxing in my belly for the last few months.
Ben's incredibly nice team at the VA let him off early yesterday so we just hung out with the baby in the hospital for hours. It was like it was our first one all over again. One of the best days in my recent memory.
And thanks to that fantastic friend, Kim Paulos and her partner in charity, Sarah Allred, for dressing Sara up and taking pictures of her in the hospital. They are wonderful friends.
We are so thrilled to have Sara in our family.
