  • Brief Check-In

    Hey all! A month ago we let you know that our baby, Annie, had arrived safely. All is going well with her and the rest of the family. We also had the great help and joy of having Claire’s parents visit us for three weeks. Jared’s parents will come for about 2 weeks mid-August! We…

  • She’s here!

    Hello friends and family! We went to the hospital on Saturday the 28th for Claire to be induced. We waited at the hospital for about 26 hours before the second step of induction was done. After the second induction, active labor was only about 1.5 hours, and Claire handled it amazingly. Thirty hours total was…

  • Scratch that, it’s a girl…

    Maybe the first doctor did the ultrasound too quickly. Maybe she was new. Maybe she just had a really strange sense of humor. She told us it was a boy… Yesterday’s ultrasound, however, showed much more clearly we’ll be having a baby girl in July! Millie Jo is excited that she’ll have someone to play…
