Baby Half Dollar is Here!

Introducing Anika Marie Silver born Jan 6 at 8:36 AM weighing in at 7lbs 15oz and 21" long.  Labour was spontaneous, totally unmedicated, and just 6 hours long. Mommy SD and baby girl are happy and healthy and learning the ins and outs of breastfeeding. If all continues to go well we'll be home sometime on the weekend.
