Introducing Julia Grace Wheat

The wait is finally over and Melarie is finally feeling more comfortable. Julia Grace Wheat was born at 8:33 PM at Pomona Valley Hospital. She weights 7 lbs 10 oz. and is 20 inches long. Both Mom and Baby are doing extremely. After a short 10 hour labor and 30 mins of pushing, we have the following pictures available.

Mommy with Baby Julia about 30 mins after birth. She (Julia) was so content to be held by mommy. I got a great video of it the first time Melarie held Julia. I will post it as soon as I have time to go home and do some editing (probably a week).

Daddy with Julia, she only crys when I hold her but here she is calm with both eyes open.

First time grandma, Fatima Sandberg, holding Julia for the first time. Julia did cry for her a little only after being passed to her from Robert.
