She was birthed at home with Euge of course, my mom, and the two midwives in attendance. I ended up not wanting to wake the girls. She weighed 8 pounds even (exactly like her big sisters!!). She is healthy and wonderful and latched on immediately.
She now even has a name, which is Libby Victoria.
More details to come, but for now some photos.
Last pregnant shot with the girls, in the very spot she ended up being born!
The photos above and below were taken at about 2am on Monday morning. Mia did her normal "come to mom and dad's room in the middle of the night" and was surprised to find a baby too!She then ran to wake up Chloe.

That's fantastic! Beautiful daughter, and birth story- just as it's supposed to be. I absolutely adore the photo of you with the three (three??) girls in bed. You all seem so happy (Mia looks a little nervous, too.)
Impressive you've given birth at home AND actually updated the blog this quickly. I've been thinking about you and sending you my best vibes...
Huzzah - another 8 Pounder! You can't have enough Hofmann-Eliases in the world. Beautiful photos, and the story of Mia being surprised by her little sister is so sweet. Congratulations!
