Claire Ann Marriott

Ben here. This is my very first post. Claire was born Thursday, July 9, 2009 at 5:16 AM. She weighed 7 pounds 12 ounces, 20" tall, and had a lot of dark brown hair. She was scheduled to come at 10:30 AM that day, but at 2 AM Christina's water broke and she started to have contractions. Claire was ready to be born. She was still breach, so it was by c-section.

With no further ado, here are the pictures:

    She's so cute and tiny! I guess she just knew when her birthday should be and wanted to make sure you knew as well. Mom said looking at your blog was probably the best way to go instead of waiting for a phone call and I'm glad I looked. I hope that the recovery goes well and cannot wait to hear your side of the story Christina.
    It looks like Audra cannot stop looking at Claire as well. Very cute.
    Congratulations!

    Congrats. She is beautiful. I am sad that we don't live closer so that Audra and Anneliese could play. Good luck on the recovery, I am sure that you will do great! Hey, if you can survive a year in a foregin country and NCCC then you must be one tough chick!
