What a great day! After waiting for an extra week past due date and then all day of Danielle's being induced on the 19th of June, Eden Hope Renstrom made her grand entrance on June 20 at 12:01 a.m. We were so excited to be there when she arrived, waiting (impatiently) in a nearby waiting area. Daniel was texting us with frequent updates, and Danielle was actually posting her progress on their blog (blonderenstroms.blogspot.com). Those of us waiting were rewarded with a chance to see and hold her when she was just minutes old.
We feel so blessed to have a third little girl to add to our family. Eden weighed 7 lbs. and 2 ozs. She's got lots of dark hair and a sweet little face that reminds us all of her big sister Bennett. Bennett is so gentle with her, just kissing her lightly on the hair and giving her "air hugs."
Daniel and Danielle are doing fine though it has been a rough couple of days. Daniel was diagnosed with strep throat Thursday morning before taking Danielle to the hospital. Danielle remained in good spirits even though she must have felt like the pregnancy was never going to end.

All right! I'm glad you've "returned" from Kansas!
Goodness! When you blog, you blog!!
Congrats on the newest addition to the Renstrom family! Our family will be excited to finally meet her (of course she'll be nearly a year old... or older) when we finally do.
Love ya guys! Miss you all... err... ya'll.
