What could be a better way to start off the new year then to see a baby being born? Ava joined the world at 1 a.m. Monday morning at 7 lbs 6 oz and 20 1/2 inches. Mom, Dad, midwife Christine Thain (so cool), doula Annie McLaulin (amazing) and midwifery students Deborah and Ashleigh were all in the room while Uncle and Grandparents were in another room anxiously awaiting to welcome sweet Ava. What a beautiful and intense experience this was - thank you Judy and David for inviting me to be present!
