DSC06120.JPGOur overdue daughter Paige Celeste arrived at 8:05 p.m. April 11 in our home, as planned. She was 9 lbs, 5 oz. and 21 inches long. My water broke at 4:45 p.m. and things  steamrolled from there. Our older daughter Claire witnessed her sister's birth, and dad caught the baby. It was a wonderful --and very intense -- home birth. There was no time to fill the birthing pool!
