Welcome Sweet Baby Sage!

Sage arrived Sunday morning (8/29) at 7:02AM after 7 1/2 hours of labor and two pushes! Managed to do it naturally again with no drugs. Jason was wonderful. I'm so proud of us. We make a great baby making team. 

Her stats: 6lbs and 2oz. 19 1/2 inches. She is a peanut. Turns out the midwifes were right all along--she's no where near the size of her brother. River was 7lbs 8oz and 20inches. Thank you for being a peanut, baby girl. It made for an easy (in hindsight anyway) labor! 

She has black hair (not red like River and she has far less hair overall than River had) and her eyes look like they will be darker than his too. I also think her skin will be a bit darker. There is a sibling resemblance. She adorable, of course.

Her full name is Sage Nirvana. Nirvana is in honor of my brother Bryan. It was his favorite band. His room/apartment were/was covered with Nirvana posters and he owned all their albums--including bootlegs. I think he'd approve. 

Forgive the late posting. If I have a moment today with two hands free, I will gladly write up the birth story in all it's gory detail. I'll get it out...eventually.  But for now, my children are my focus. Ah, children. So wonderful.

There is nothing better in this world than my babies. I am a very happy mother. In fact, these days following Sage's birth might be the happiest in my life. I feel completed.

Congrats! She's beautiful. And tiny. My wife would be jealouse. All of our babies were big, but loss weight after they were born. Get plenty of rest.
