Our newest member of the family arrived at 11:28 am CT today! Elizabeth Lin Morrissey weighs 7 lbs, 12 ozs, is 19″ long, and is doing very well indeed:
Missy’s a little tired but feeling very well. David says he’s tired too, no doubt from the past week of waiting impatiently for Elizabeth’s arrival. Missy was scheduled to get induced today after being so far overdue, but Elizabeth beat the deadline; Missy went into labor early this morning naturally and delivered quickly. If Elizabeth can meet deadlines like that, she’ll make a natural writer — so I think we’ll call her the Little Scribe.
Here’s Grandpa meeting his second granddaughter for the first time:
I’m going to have much, much more later … and for the next twenty years, too.
Update: More pictures! The First Mate got some grandma time:
