Eleanor Ann Balch was born Wednesday, April 29 at 2:42 in the morning. She weighed in at 8 pounds, 15 ounces (the exact same weight that I was as a baby), and she is twenty-one and a half inches long.
Thank you all for your sweet comments and support throughout the pregnancy! Today is Brandon’s birthday and we’ve just arrived home from the hospital after a slightly extended stay. There were a few complications throughout the inducing process and delivery, but I’m doing well and Eleanor is happy and healthy.
She has blue eyes, brown hair, and she’s just beautiful. We’re so in love with her.

What a beauty! Sweet little life! Many blessings to you all!
Ahhhh. The big ones are pre-chubby and just that much more to love. Seriously, they start sleeping through the night at about 11-12 pounds, so you are that much closer.
She’s perfect.
Congratulations.
