Welcome Samantha!

Not much time to post details now as I have to get back to the hospital to Annette and the baby. But since Samantha has so many fans (and not even a day old!), we wanted to get these pictures out for everyone to look at.

Here's the basics: Annette's water broke at 2am early Fri morning. We got to the hospital around 2:45am. We waited and waited until Annette was fully dilated which was about 1:15pm. Once the pushing started at 1:20, mommy was very efficient and it was all over in about 20 minutes. Great job Mommy! Samantha was 7 lbs 2.6 oz, and was 20 inches long.

I will post some video clips after we get back from the hospital. Thanks everyone for your support and well wishes!

Congratulations! We are so happy for you guys. Samantha's already done so much. She's made two new grandparents, gave Kate, Ally, and Leo a new cousin, made new aunts and uncles. And she's brought so much joy.

Hope to be able to see you guys soon.

Steve, Ami, Katelyn and Alyssa.
