All Hail the Queen

At 7:39, Monday August 20th, Meg gave birth to Rowan Margaret. Words are insufficient. First, some pics from about 10 minutes after she was born:

Next, some pics from late Tuesday morning (15 hours old). Up first, a stunning shot I call "Fingers find mouth":

Next, an up close shot titled "Fingers remain in mouth--sleepy":

My personal favorite: "I might get fussy":

And, of course, "Rowan asserts her presence":

She is beautiful!! We can't wait to meet her. Take more pics and post them! I'm very proud of Meg's drug-free delivery and amazed that Marc is still conscious and could post this tonight. I figured Marc would be a wreck in a bed next to Meg as she delivered with the pushing and blood and umbilical cord... ;)

Rowan Margaret is beautiful. Vivian is thrilled to have a playmate! And Megan is so brave to do it all naturally... I couldn't do it!
