Franklin, Mom, and Dad
What an amazing couple of days!

The labor went long, and EJ's umbilical cord seemed to be wrapped in an uncomfortable way; eventually Emily ended up needing a C-Section. I'm not going to say that the whole experience was easy or pleasant, but the end result is just awesome.

And I am thrilled to report that everyone is happy and healthy and looking great!
