she's here!!!

We welcomed Kathryn Nicole Waugh today, June 30th, at 1:54 PM. She weighed 8 lbs 6 oz and was 21 inches long. She has the deepest blueish eyes (for now anyway) and a head full of black hair!

I don't remember much as I was trying to keep my eyes closed, breathe, and scream all at the same time. I do remember her head showing and the doc saying that I will be putting bows in her hair soon. I think by the time I started yelling "I can't do this any more" she was just about ready to come out. Eric & Katie, the nurse, said I began pushing around 1:20 so I really didn't push that long. I can tell you the contractions where they wouldn't let me push were the worst part of it!

For nicknames, we will allow Kate, but that's really about it.

I know everyone is wanting to see pics, but we are having problems posting them to here, so we have a few on our website... http://www.thewaughs.org/ We'll try to get a few more up sometime tomorrow, but I can't promise what time. I need to sleep and I'm not sure how much I'll actually get tonight.

We thank everyone for the thoughts and prayers!!!

Yay! I'm so excited! And I love her name (though I may occasionally call her Broomhilda). :) I don't usually pick a "looks like" person, but in this case, I definitely think she looks like her Mama!
