Ailish was born early Saturday morning, after a quick labor, for sure my shortest so far. My water broke a little after midnight, contractions started after that and began to pick up and get more regular. By about 2:30 they were about 5 minutes apart and strong enough we started getting ready to head to the hospital. We left for the hospital around 3:30. They clocked us into the labor and delivery floor at 3:53 a.m. and she was born at 4:11 a.m.! Both of us are doing well, Ailish is perfectly healthy and happy. The kids are all loving her, Caeden and Colm ask often to hold her, Caeden loves to talk to her and sing her songs. Colm is very intrigued by her umbilical cord stump. Alannah said "I love my sister" when she first saw her. She continues to be enthralled by her. Tadhg is pretty much oblivious to her, knows she's around but doesn't pay much attention to her. She is settling into life around here well, nursing and sleeping as expected. We are throughly loving and enjoying having her here.

Congrats Jen! She is beautiful and while bearing the McLaimtaig "look" has a look all her own. So glad labor was fast and relatively "easy". She is your second biggest too, isn't she?
