Introducing Amara Scothern

The day has finally come...Amara decided to join our little family.

Amara Mae Scothern


6 lbs 9 oz 19 inches

The quick story--water broke; went to the hospital; got IV and epidural (which I was petrified for and it was less painful than the dentist); got on some meds--they had to watch my blood pressure really close; got on oxygen and was told to start pushing....4 contractions later our baby girl was born.

It is still surreal that this was in my belly. It is amazing that in one day our lives now are twisted around this little baby's finger. We love everything about her! We can't stop kissing her cheeks; staring at her face or saying "Honey, hurry come look at her". Clayton is officially smitten with his little princess.

Many more pics to come...but here are the first few from the hospital. She changes a little each day...well except for those darling locks of dark hair!
