Hi all, this is Jared. This is one of the rare times where I am actually posting to this blog instead of Rena, but circumstances are such that she's not able to post at the moment :-). I'm sure you all know what that means. Today was a really wonderful day. Rena gave birth to Miley Leia Deming at 4:07pm PDT. She is 20 inches long and weighs 7lbs 7oz. She has been very mild mannered thus far, only managing a few whimpers when she was born. Otherwise she has been very content. She has just a bit of brown hair and can't seem to keep her hands out of her face, just like in her ultrasound pictures.
Both mother and daughter are doing well. I took Nate and Grandma Smart (Nancy) over to visit this evening, and Nate said that she looked "so cute!" and kept snuggling his head into her. Both Rena and Miley should be coming home tomorrow afternoon. It's a relief and a blessing to finally have Miley here and we couldn't be happier. Wish more of you could be here in person to hold her. I had forgotten what it was like to have such a little child in my arms. I don't know quite how to describe it, but its like holding a small piece of heaven in your arms. Anyway, I'm sure Rena will post more pictures and details as soon as she can. In the meantime, I've put up these pictures to give you a first look.
