Her name is Lena Janay Prepchuk... it is pronounced LEE-na... not LEN-a or LAY-na, or anything else you can think of (now I hope we don't have to have this conversation again!)
She was born October 12th, 2007 at 1:40 pm... after a debatable 12 hours of labour (debatable, because the first 8 or so hours were irregular contractions and we couldn't figure out what was going on... the hospital staff figured they'd be sending us home... but she decided to make everyone look foolish for doubting)
She weighed in at a nice fat 8 pounds 9 ounces... and has already earned herself the nickname pumpkin head because of that nice round face of hers. And if you really care how long... she's 20 inches.
And obviously she looks a lot like her father, and nothing like her mother, like her brothers before her... but no doubt you'll all have some kind of opinion on that, whether you agree with me or not.
More pictures and updates coming soon, I promise. As soon as I can sit on this chair for longer than 10 minutes!
