(that exhilarating first moment)
: first family portrait :

(heron slept through the whole thing! i started having sparse, painless contractions around her bedtime. the midwives arrived at midnight, right when "real" labor started. shepherd was born at 3:30, & the midwives left at 7:00 just as heron was waking up to a new sibling...)
