She's here

Marne (my wife) had to be induced on Tuesday morning. Which is odd as she was on bedrest for months due to preterm contractions. Anyway at 9 am they hooked her up. She progressed slowly and at 2pm they checked her and told her she was only a 4, then 5 minutes later another nurse came in and checked her again and said, "Holy crap your a 10, lets have this baby." The doctor was called and after 2 pushes the baby popped out at 7 lbs 4 oz. and at 224pm. We named her Rachel Marne Gresko.

Congratulations! She is so cute! I am so jealous that it just took two pushes and she was out. I pushed for 3 1/2 hours before having to have a c-section.
