edit: We are not checking out Wednesday. We'll be at the hospital all day. Come see us after noon. -eric
Jessica and I welcome baby Emily to our family.
She was born at 7:41 this morning after a medication-free labor & delivery. She was measured at 8lbs & 20 inches. I have been able to hold her. I've taken pictures of her. I have video of her. Yet, I cannot show you b/c I left all the cables at home! Argh!
Jess and I were admitted at 8:45 last night which means we had a long night of active labor. Jessica and I enjoyed Orange Juice to celebrate Emily's original birthday party!
Hopefully we'll be able to head home tomorrow sometime. Today we're going to spend some time recovering and we'll take visitors tomorrow. Thanks for all your prayers!

Praise the LORD for a good delivery experience for you! Looking forward to the photos!!
Congratulations! Going home tomorrow already?? My advice: If you can stay longer...do! Once you get home it's all you and I know Mama is tired and it'll be harder tomorrow. Okay, enough unwanted advice, you do what you need to do. I'm happy for you both and Praise the Lord for such a special gift! Post pictures as soon as you can. : )
hooray for PINK!!!!
Congratulations!
love to all, Beth
Yeah on the baby - but, I am disappointed no pictures yet. Rest a little and then go get those cables!!
Emily is such a pretty name - I love it! And I second all Brenda's advice. :)
i third the advice....make sure you are comfy with the nursing thing it is easy to give in to pumping/formula at home when you are very very very very tired and weak!
yeah for you! I knew it was a girl! Hope you enjoy these first few days with her. Call me if you need to vent...try to get as much sleep as you can! Can't wait to see pics...does she have red hair?!?!?

Congratulations to you both! And Jessica, may I say kudos to you for NO MEDS!!!!! Way to be strong, sister! I caved as soon as they asked if I wanted pain meds.......oh well!

Lots of love to you all!
Praise God! With Him all things are possible--even drug-free births! We are SO proud of you both. Can't wait to see pics of Emily. Especially can't wait to meet her. Call if you need anything at all.

Congratulations!
I'm excited to hear that things went well and I hope you are getting a lot of needed rest.
I was just sorting through baby clothes last night and said to Michaela, "we need people to have more girls!" I'll have to get some pink stuff in the mail to you soon. :)
Love to you all.

Ironically, we checked the website today - for Baby Emily's birthday! Congrats Jessica and Eric! We are ohhh sooo happy for you! Can't wait to meet our new cousin!
All our love,
Kent, Monica, and Nathan
My computer stopped working! Now I can't update the blog nor can I log in from the public terminals.
It appears we'll be at the hospital longer than we anticipated since Jessica is still quite weak from the loss of blood.
This means that we'd love to have visitors after 11am tomorrow (Wednesday).

Congratulations dear friends in welcoming your daughter Emily! Praying for rest, comfort, and a smooth transition into family life. Please let us know if there is anything we can do to help, like provide a meatloaf dinner ;)
Much love
p.s. Leah will love to play dress up with Emily
CONGRATS TO THE WENTZTRIO! Praise God that all three of you had a successful labor and delivery. May God bless you, your family, and your new baby.
