Right on schedule, the new baby Guptill arrived. On Friday morning, August 8, 2008 (8/8/08 - her due date!) Anna Rose Guptill was born. We left for the hospital at 6:45am and got there at 7:05am. At 7:10am we made it to labor and delivery and at 7:23am Anna Rose was born. It was a whirlwind trip to the hospital. We barely made it. We didn't even get to a delivery room. We had the baby in the triage room and I was still wearing the T-shirt I walked in with. The nurse told us if we have a third child, to come to the hospital RIGHT AWAY!
Anna was 7 lbs 10 ounces and 20 and 3/4 inches long. Mom and baby were both fine and healthy and we got to come home from the hospital the next day. Matthew is mildly interested in the new baby...I'm not sure it has sunk in yet that baby Anna is here to stay. Hopefully they get along.

Congratulations! She is amazing. Nice job.
Ooooh! Congratulations! She's beautiful, and I love LOVE her name. How wonderful! May I ask how long you labored at home before going in to the hospital? Just curious, you're a champ! Yay for babies!
I was in labor for 8 hours total this time. A big change from 22 hours with Matthew! So obviously I had time to get to the hospital sooner...but didn't. Oops! For more gory details you can read Anna's Birth Story (I just put it up) on my personal blog. :)
Congratulations Emily! I cant believe miss Anna is finally here. I am shocked at your timing to the hospital! I hope you guys are doing well as a family of four now!!
