Julie Kate has finally arrived! Born on November 11, 2008 at 7:35am, weighing 6lbs. 14 oz., and 19.5 in long!
Her delivery story is much shorter than Joshua's (praise Jesus!). Basically, we arrived at the hospital at 6am for my scheduled c-section. I was prepped for surgery and Julie Kate was delivered at 7:35am. Everything went extremely smooth. My blood pressure was a little high right before delivery, but other than that, no sign of complications. We were released from the hospital around noon on November 13 and are so glad to be home as a family. Julie Kate is a precious baby girl - she started breastfeeding immediately and has not looked back, so that is a big relief as well. She appears to be a pretty laid back baby like Joshua was, we will see if that continues once her personality starts to come out :) Throughout this whole experience Josh and I have been reminded of how difficult the delivery process with Joshua was. We don't know how we made it through all that 19 months ago, but are so very grateful that this time around was so much better. We are truly blessed and are in awe of how amazing our new little girl is! Here are a couple of pictures from the last few days...

So precious!!!! And you look great! Thank God this pregnancy & delivery went better!
Oh my gosh, these pictures make me cry. Joshua looks so excited and I am sure Josh is already wrapped around her finger. I am so thankful all went well and you and Julie left the hospital so soon! You definitely earned an easy experience this time! Love you!
Congratulations, Jenn! I'm so thankful that things went well, praise the Lord. She is so beautiful! I love that last pic with you putting her in the car. Joshua looks like such a proud big brother! Congrats to your family.
Congratulations! Julie Kate is just beautiful and Joshua looks like the perfect big brother. You and Amanda will need to get the girls together soon. Glad everything went well and she is healthy and happy. Miss Eva gets more beautiful and amazing every day. Pam Kanakis (Mimi)
