She's Here!

Sadie Elizabeth Uebel was born on 12/29/2010 at 1:13pm! The whole labor and delivery process was pretty smooth, and lasted less than 12 hours. April woke up with contractions at about 1:30am that morning, we were at the hospital by 4am (after dropping off Mabel with our friends Robbie and Kristal), and before we knew it she was here!

Our stay at the hospital was really good - we had plenty of help learning how to care for our little girl and recovering from delivery. We came home on the afternoon of New Year's Eve, and we've been adjusting to this new stage of life at home since then. We've been really thankful for the many friends who have come to visit, done little favors for us, and brought us meals during this time. Here are a couple of pictures from her first few days of life.
