kendall acadia berg

Kendall came into our lives today at 10:02 am. She entered the world loudly, making sure everyone knew she was here. She's a beautiful, healthy girl with a gorgeous head of light brown hair. Vital stats: weight - 7 lbs 14 oz, length - 20 inches. Mama did very well and is recovering quickly. Shelby actually feels far better than she did after Riley's birth, so we are hoping for a rapid recovery.

We had some family time this afternoon where Shelby's Mom and Riley came to visit us at the hospital for a while. Riley was so cute with his sister, giving her a kiss early on and also and unsolicited kiss goodbye. Very cute. We think he's going to be a great older brother.

We'll have much more in the future, for now though we'll just leave you with some pictures and a quick video.

She came out screaming!

So beautiful! Hi there, Kendall!

I'm glad you're doing well, Shelby, and that you got some time with your boy. He looks absolutely delighted with baby sis.
