My sweet wife, Missy gave birth to our fourth child this morning at 3:15 a.m.
It’s a girl – Lillian Elizabeth Leventhal.
8 lbs 5 ounces
21 inches long
Missy & baby are doing great!
The night went unbelievably well & really, really fast! Here was our timeline:
1:18 a.m. – Missy wakes up to a strong contraction
1:30 a.m. – Missy wakes me up & informs me that it’s time to go
1:45 a.m. – Good friend arrives to watch the other kiddos
1:53 a.m. – We are in the car headed to the hospital
2:16 a.m. – We got checked in to the hospital. Dr. Heckman arrives at virtually the same time
3:15 a.m. – Baby is born – healthy, beautiful and loud
5:30 p.m. – We check out of the hospital and head home (yes, we checked out the same day Lillian was born! My wife is a rock star!)
Here are some pictures of our sweet Lilly!
