She is here...

Thank you all so much for your good wishes. I am updating from the airport in Houston while we are waiting to board our next flight (late- of course).

The baby was born in the afternoon. 21 Inches and a whopping 8 pounds 4 ounces. She scored great on the Apgar. We won't be able to see her when we arrive. Hopefully the birthmother is signing relinquishment tomorrow afternoon... We are torn between joy, excitement, and fear.
