Best Birthday Present Ever

She is here! I share a birthday with our new daughter, Rachel Faye!

Here are the stats:
Born Tuesday, June 17
9 lbs 2 oz
22 inches long

We arrived at the hospital at midnight (early Tuesday morning) and she was born at 8:59am.
Here are some pics - the birthday girls (worn out after our big party), sleeping, first bath, and proud dad!
