Scarlett Suzanne Newman Buchanan was born on December 5, in the morning, at home in the water, into her dad and my midwive's loving hands. 8 pounds, 14 ounces, 21 inches and a huge head! She is a sweet and friendly little girl, and so far, a very good sleeper. She's also growing very quickly, already 11+ pounds (and weighed 3 pounds more than Ivy at birth - crazy!)
I will be writing up her birth story but will not post it here. Please email me if you are interested in hearing about our beautiful home birth.
And Ivy is almost 2 years old, I can't beleive how fast it has gone. She is a very good big sister, and is very sweet to her little sister. Hopefully they will grow up to be best friends...
Hey Molly -
Mazel Tov to you and Chris, m'dear.
Scarlett is positively stunning.
