It's a GIRL!!!!!!

Catherine "Simms" Brent arrived October 11 at 1:30pm weighing a whopping 8 pounds 4 ounces, 20 inches.
It was the ideal delivery, much better than Margaret's! After waking up at 3:20am with contractions and waiting for Miss Margaret to wake up so mommy could get her fix, we headed to the hospital. We checked in at 8am and was only 3 cm (I had been having contractions the day before(10/10), went into to get monitored and was only 1.5 at 4pm). Contractions increased quickly, they broke my water and as soon as I could I got my epidural, which worked this time! At 11:15 I was 6cm and by 1:15 we were ready to meet the little one. Um what that was fast! 5 pushes and 7 minutes later we heard the wonderful news . . . it's a girl! A healthy girl! She looks so much like her big sister. We are all in love and feel so blessed!
(Will update with pictures from the last few days when we get home and I have a spare minute :)
