Cara Eve Stoltzfus was born this morning at 10:36am.. and is doing wonderfully. Candace is amazing, and I'm humbled by her capacity to do this childbirth thing. 6lb 5oz 18 1/2 inches long. Shes sleeping now... i just changed my first diaper in about forever (ok about a year and a half or something) anyway... im proud of my daughter, and proud of my wife... this is the second baby she had with absolutely no pain medicine or anything. just gripping my hand. Thanks also goes out to our friend and Doula Jan King. She was helpful with the soothing words and encouragement.
