Emmeline Dawn DesJardins was born on Sunday at 2:02 pm via C-section. Mom and baby are doing great. She is our first.

I've taken quite a few photos, but little time to get the uploaded yet.

I just wanted to share the news.

Can't think of a better use for a camera. Congrats to the new Mommy and Daddy. Just wait till she hits her teens. From what I hear, thats when the real work begins. :wink:

Congrats Ryan. She looks beautiful.

Must be the water since it seems to happening all over (births). My 4th grandchild entered the world Tuesday.

Ryan, this is an example of all the fun you'll have with Emmeline in the next few years:
This morning, Peggy, Ellen and I, at the breakfast table, laughed and laughed at all the ways we could say "damn" without swearing. The we somehow got on to some guttural sound for "R" and had a riot going through the alphabet substituting the sound for the R.
Later, Ellen and I had an air guitar concert to The Rolling Stones' "Brown Sugar.". Then we had a rubber band fight and then a styrofoam rocket fight. After that Ellen cleaned up my pencil holder and now she's cleaning her room. We listened to the Rolling Stones for a while and now we're listening to Aly & AJ.
