Introducing Maci Gayle Jones


Our little "Angel in Waiting" graced us with her presence on Monday night, January 11th, at 10:32 pm weighing in at 7 pds 6 oz and 20 1/2 inches long. It was a very uneventful 6 hour labor (with about 8 hours of waiting before that after my water broke). Eric was a wonderful coach and I like to think that I was pretty good at pushing her out as well. hehe.

Maci is a beautiful, calm but alert little girl. She is a GREAT eater and sleeps about 3-4 hours at a time at night already. We are excited for everyone to meet her and can't wait to watch her grow. .....And yes, Maci is already the apple of Eric's eye and it was just as I thought--he is SMITTEN by her. Tears in his eyes are tears of a Father's love that is truely priceless.

I sent your gift in the mail on Friday, so be looking for it in a few days! Wow! You are sure lucky to have her sleep 3-4 hours a night already! None of my kids did that. So glad everything went well!
