Baby M

Well it is official "baby M" has joined the world and will forever share a birthday with her mommy! This is Jessica posting for Jody and Shaye as you may have guessed they are a little busy!

After taking time around the house to do a few things--like update the blog-- it was off to the hospital. 8 hours later "baby M" decided to enter the world! Baby and mom are both doing well. Jody's labor went really well for a first time mom even though she probably would have liked more anesthesia (by the time they got the epidural in and working it was time to push).

Name: Madelyn Ray Melton
Weight: 6 lbs 14 oz
Length: 19.5 inches
When: Monday, November 10, 2008 at 3:06 PM (England time)

They will be in the hospital until Wednesday and then settling in to a routine at home (I wonder what Daisy will think)!! They thank everyone for their thoughts, prayers and well wishes and can't wait for you to meet Madelyn. They will post pictures and update the blog as soon as they can!
