... and then they were 4!

As you would already know if you were reading tanthe's journal, today I welcomed my daughter into the world.

Matilda Anaïs was born at 3:54pm (GMT-5) on March 25th, 2008.
She weighed in at 8lbs 1/2 oz (3.64kg) and measured 19 1/2" (49.5cm). So basically nailing the 50th percentile according to the Center for Desease Control's Growth Chart for Girls (PDF link).

She was a surprise breech birth. She had been presenting head down for several weeks, but I guess at some point near the end she decided to flip. She was still born naturally, at home and in water (in a pool I had setup in the living room).

Of course, she will never live down that her butt was the first thing she presented to the world ;)

And without further ado ...
