Here is our sweet little baby girl. We named her Clarissa Vay Beagley. Clarissa is a family name on my side and Vay is Kyle's grandma's name. She was born on Saturday morning just after midnight, April 5! I'm not due until the 20th but she is full term and beautiful and healthy! She weighed 6 lbs 8 oz and was 20 inches long. Kirsten had come really fast so we were afraid that this baby would come even faster so I was a little worried about how my labor would go. I had just gone about my regular day on Friday and then I started to bleed a little bit so we decided to go to the hospital and get checked. We kept thinking they would probably send us home since I wasn't feeling any contractions. The monitor was picking up contractions and I was progressing so they decided to keep us! We went in at 6 pm and she was born just after midnight. It was so strange to be in the hospital in labor and not be in panic mode like with our other kids. It was just calm as we sat and waited for my body to progress more. It was a great labor! Thanks to Grandma Gayle and Aunt Megan for watching our kids and now my mom is staying with us until Friday. We are so blessed to have great family to help us.Tuesday, April 8, 2008

Congratulations!!! She's beautiful you guys! Janell you look just radiant for having a baby. We have a blog too! Check ours out. Let's stay in touch better. I miss you Janell!
Aw...she's a beauty of a Beagley! And Janell, you look so peaceful! How nice to not panic, wondering if you'll get to the hospital on time! (If we could only be so lucky!) Congratulations!
I'm so happy for you!!! I checked your blog this morning to see if you had updated anything and you hadn't and then all of a sudden, here's a baby! I guess it's kind of like your labor! I'm happy that she came fast, but not too fast, early, but not too early.
We love you guys and are so happy for you all.
Love Heather and Robert
