Introducing Riese Elizabeth, 6 pounds and 5 ounces, 18 and 3/4 inches long. Born November 24 at 2:48 p.m.!

she's here!

Thank you for all the love and welcomes you have already given her via Instagram and Facebook! I started feeling some early labor contractions the day/night before the scheduled C section, so it seems we picked her birthday well, and we are so happy and grateful our breech babe is finally here, in our arms, safe and sound. 🙂

first meeting

Mom, Dad, and baby Riese (a family name – pronounced Reese) are all doing well. We are so in love with this little face already!

first day

More to come as soon as we get settled! Thank you for sharing in this very special time with us. <3

  • Anne, congratulations! She is adorable, and I LOVE her name. Pretty weird coincidence: I had my son last month, October 27th, also via c-section because he was breech, and he ALSO weighed 6lbs 5oz at birth AND was 18 3/4 in long.
