Catherine has Arrived

Yesterday afternoon a moderately high but blood pressures (178/103) turned
a scheduled Dr's appointment into an earlier than expected C-section
arrival - Alison is fine, Catherine is perfect, Mike is over the moon.

Ali and Mike welcomed Catherine at 8:41 PM on May 28th. Catherine is tall
at 21.5" and not as heavy as they said she would be at 7 lb 13 oz, peaches
and cream complexion, bright interested eyes, strong grip, nursed like a
champ, curly hair, not much of a screamer, ... altogether perfect.

Rick and I, Chris and Amy, and Kelly and Preston all waited till about
10:00 when we got to hold her. She's beautiful. Wes and Jenny arrived at
around 11:00 (a little fast for the Houston to Dallas trip) and were
equally impressed with her. We are a smitten family.

Mike has put together an awsome slideshow. Just follow the link.
