Savannah Grace Boyes joined our family at 12:55 PM today, July 25th. What an amazing miracle! I pushed for almost 90 minutes with no major complications. Savannah weighs 7 pounds, 14 ounces and is 19 inches long. She has a head full of beautiful dark hair, long graceful fingers, and her mommy's nose. ;) (I can't wait to get a pink bow in her hair!)
Michael was a wonderful help during the labor and delivery. Having the epidural was such a blessing that allowed me the chance to rest during the time leading up to delivery and regain some of the strength I had lost during the previous 2 days of "at home" contractions.
Both sets of Savannah's grandparents and her great-grandmother (Julie's Nana Lou) were here for the day, which was a wonderful blessing for us. We are so thrilled to have had them with us for this special day.
