Introducing Grace Margaret Drake

We officially became the 3 Drakes on Tuesday, Sept. 5th at 11:44 a.m. After 30 hour+ of labor, Shelby pushed like a champ for 1 1/2 hours to bring our 8 lb 4 oz, 21" wonder into the world.


She resembles Shelby more than me. Actually, she resembles her aunt Monica's baby pictures the most! HHmmm... Lord help us! :) While she looks a lot like her mom, I would like to point out one trait that I KNOW she gets from me- the enjoyment of pooping! Before being delivered she pooped in the amniotic fluid, which neither of her parents realized could be done! And if you look at the picture below taken only a few minutes after birth, she has been pooping ever since! That's my girl!
