Mom Julie and baby daughter Grace seem to be doing very well after a grueling 20+ hours in labor. Julie was in amazing spirits considering she’d had an hour of sleep, and dad was doing well, too.
Grace’s vitals: 7lbs., 4 oz., 20 inches: arrived at 11:47 PM on November 4. We’re all so thrilled… We’ll be posting a few more pix before day is done…

What a blessing! Super congratulations to Grace, to John and Julie, and to the two very proud newly-minted grandparents! We’ve ordered your rockers (and I don’t mean Led Zeppelin!).

I think it was particularly thoughtful of Julie to have this baby on my birthday so it will be easy for you to remember. Even after the hard labor Julie looks beautiful.
Congratulations!
