She's here!!!!

Helayna Lorraine was born October 25th at 8:33am. She weighs 6lbs. 6oz. and is 19 inches long. She came early and quickly (my water broke at 11pm, contractions started at midnight, we got to the hospital at 6:30am and she was born at 8:33am). We are all doing really well and couldn't have asked for a better experience. The staff at the hospital was amazing. Our doula was priceless. Jonathan was so encouraging and helpful (as usual) and he is one VERY proud daddy. She is absolutely beautiful and we are so thrilled she is here!
And of course I can't get photos to load! :( :( :( I promise I will try again later today though!

Yah! I'm so excited, and so happy Helayna was born. I'm the proud aunt here in Poland telling everyone about my neice. I saw some pictures from mom. She's beautiful. I can't wait to hold and cuddle with her. I'm so proud of you, and can't wait to talk soon to hear more details. Love you so much.
