A new addition...




After a couple of weeks of contractions, Maya Sophia Hennessey was born Saturday, August 30th at 7:10am, weighing in at 8lbs and 20 inches long... fat, pink and perfect. We just got home from the hospital, a slightly longer than expected stay due to a stubborn placenta that wouldn't release. We had really great care at an in hospital birthing center with lots of great nurses. We're resting and doing fine and getting used to life with baby. More pictures soon to come.... first a feeding, then a diaper change, then a nap.. oh no wait another feeding... :)

Good job Verena! Think about what you would be doing if you were teaching school, working a lot longer than 2 hours at a time.
She is sooo cute, looks a lot like Dad (OK so he doesn't feel left out)it's really hard to tell, but a lot pretier than both of you together. Can't wait to see her!
