A Gift of Ivy on the 1st of May

Ivy Baker, less than 24 hours old! She was born May 1, 7:49pm. She is 20 inches long and weighs 6 pounds 12 ounces. A GOOD, calm baby. Her mother is amazing! (as is her dad) Natural childbirth, 20 minutes hard labor was at the midwife's facility less than an hour before Ivy arrived.
