And then there were four


With the utmost pride of a mother, I'd love to annouce Truman Daniel Gilbert's arrival into the world. He came "down, down, down" as Harrison says at 7:09 am yesterday (Tuesday, September 11) and has been blessing us ever since. A little bit smaller than H-man, Truman was 8 lbs, 1 oz and 21 1/4 inches long. Everything went fantastically; I'm feeling very well considering. I'm keeping this one short, with just a couple pics. I'll add some sweet video tomorrow. Thank you to all the friends and loved ones who have reached out to us since we're not close to family. We are so blessed.

Your baby is adorable, and, despite your smile, you look so tired. It makes me want to give you a piggy-back.
