Hi, everyone! It's Frema, live from Molly's hospital room. I wasn't going to update until I was back at Luke's parents' house, but it's been a longer day than we thought, and Molly thought all you good people deserved an update. Thank goodness for Kevin remembering to bring his laptop.
Baby Marin Ann was born at 8:04 a.m. this morning, weighing a lovely six pounds and four ounces and measuring 18 inches long. She had some trouble breathing, so she was on oxygen on and off until just a few minutes ago, and she also has an IV that we're hoping can be removed soon. She's absolutely beautiful, and Molly is doing well. Surgery went better than she expected, and she looks great--just anxious to hold her baby. We're all on pins and needles waiting to get our hands on this adorable little girl.
My plan is to stick around long enough to watch Mom and Baby get properly introduced, give Marin a little squeeze, and then call my chauffeur (aka Luke) to pick me up so I can post pictures from my in-laws' house. Hang in there, Internet! The pictures, they are coming!






Best wishes for Baby Marin! Congrats to everyone else!
