Happy Birthday Anderson!

What a night! Anderson Grace Ueltschey was born this morning at 2:20 am. Her mama and daddy did GREAT - Rebecca's labor started at 4 am on May 27 and Anderson was born about 22 hrs later.

Michael was precious bringing her out in the hall - grinning from ear to ear! It was so fun and special to see her (and Rebecca and Michael) during the first few minutes of Anderson's life.

Ellie must have known something exciting was happening because I arrived home at 3:45 am and she woke up at 4:15 am! Ellie is fascinated with all of Anderson's hair and begs to touch it. We are going to have to restrain her for awhile!

Check Rebecca's blog for more stats and pics. Happy Birthday little one!
