41 weeks later...

...it's a GIRL!!!!  We finally got to meet Miss Natalie Jane Hayes, born April 20, 2011 at 9:20pm.  Natalie weighed in at 9lbs, 2oz and measured 21in.

We came home from the hospital 2 days after Natalie was born and so far, both mom and dad are doing well with the new addition.  Natalie is sleeping/eating on a 4-6 hour schedule and we are thankful for this already.

Katie and Sally are adjusting to life with a newborn in the house.  Sally is learning to keep a safe distance and sleep when the baby sleeps and Katie is doing her best to be helpful in any way she can.

All in all, we are very thankful for a healthy addition to our family and are cherishing every day with lil Miss Natalie.
