Elise Marie was born on July 13th, 6 Lbs. 11 oz. 19in. and scored a nearly unheard of perfect 10 on her 1 and 5 minute apgar tests.
Now, if she can only tune and rebuild a carb, as well as an engine I'm in business... shouldn't be difficult, her mother can too :)

Daddy ran whiskey in a big black dodge
bought it at an auction at the masons lodge,
Johnson County Sherriff painted on the side,
just shot a coat of primer then he looked inside,
well him and my uncle tore that engine down,
I still remember that rumblin' sound.....

The Aquamax...yes, this bike spent 2 nights underwater one weekend. (Not my doing), but it gained the name, and has since become pseudo-famous. :)

We were very happy to get home from the hospital, she has an ABO incompatibility problem, and spent 3 days in the hospital under a bili-light to help keep her biliruben count low. She had a test yesterday morning that looked pretty normal, she will have another one tomarrow morning to be certain, but she isn't turning yellow anymore so I'm thinking were out of the woods and won't need a transfusion done.

We were so sick of being in that hospital, so getting home, even though we had to take her back from tests, was a big relief!

and yes, lots of pics/video have been taken...

I went to sleep last night at 10, was awake from:
10:30-11:15
1:00-2:00
4:00-4:30
6:30-7:30
and finally woke up at 8:45, realized I was nearly an hour late for work and headed out...which is where I am now...
last night was much the same. I'm glad this only goes on for the first several weeks.

NO, dont let that start happening.  There is no sense in both of you being dead ass tired everyday.  Try to only have one person get up at a time.  My spouse wanted me to get up everytime to help change the diaper before she breast feed and i asked "what good does it do for both of us to be dead tired everyday?"  "When we switch to formula i'll get my turn in at being up all the time."  So we would take turns and it worked out better. 
 
Anyways, good luck.
