She's Here!

Welcome Baby Jana!

She made her debut at 0516 on October 1st. She's 6 pounds 13 ounces, 19.5 inches long, and her apgars were 9 and 9 (for you curious nurses). YAY!

More to come later, but I need sleep now! It's a pretty funny labor story, since I was still on the clock getting paid when she was born- there are some perks to going into labor at work, I guess.

Congratulations! I can't wait to hear the whole story- it sounds very interesting =). She was VERY anxious to come and be part of your family! That's neat that you kinda knew she was going to be there soon... She's beautiful.

Congratulations you guys! She's adorable!

Melinda said...

Wow, those are AWESOME APGAR scores!! I look forward to the labor story when you feel you have enough energy to do so. And I also look forward to Halloween pictures and first Thanksgiving and first Christmas...I love the year of firsts! Although Sam had to wait for her first Easter to happen AFTER her first birthday, since she was born April 7 and Easter that year was in March, the next year it was AFTER April 7.

Brett and Ali said...

She is adoreable! Congrats! I can't wait to meet her. Get some sleep, you really deserve it.

Fay Call said...

Hey I hope you're doing well, adjusting ok to two. You're crazy, I can't even imagine that right now. And by the way, the apgars were 9 and 10. Only a nurse's baby gets that.

Tara said...

Congratulations Anderson's! I'm coming up to Rexburg on Thursday and hope to see you!

Congratulations! This one is for Lee Wyatt Anderson if it is the one I know from the good old NYUM around 99-01. I have some good memories involving paintball, a Canadian, and a kid from Georgia with a funny accent. I came across your blog from a family member's high school reunion site. Check out ours if you get time.
