After a couple false starts, a painful Saturday of back spasms, a drive to the hospital in a blizzard, oh, let's call it 14 hours of labor, and throw in a 2 hour c-section procedure, Emma Kennedy Barron joined the vital statistics rolls at 12:19pm on December 16th. She weighted in a 7lbs 13 oz. She's got an incredibly shock of brown hair (that I somehow didn't adequatley capture on film...to be rectified soon).
Mother and baby are doing great. Dad's a wreck...
...Big Sister isn't sure what to make of this startling development.

WOOOO HOOOO!!!!! Welcome, beautiful little Emma!
And..Go Ker-ri, Go Ker-ri, GO KER-RI!!!
Martin, your wife is a badass. And I think you look happier than I've ever seen you.
Wonderful, wonderful news.
Love,

She looks beautiful! I can't wait to see her. I am so glad that everyone is healthy and finally here. I can't wait to see Libby interacting with her.
Love you ALL!

The three hours this afternoon between the c-section alert call and finding out Emma was actually here seemed like the longest three hours of my life. So glad everyone is okay. We're excited to take Libby a few places during our visit, so tell her to hang in there.
Love,
Kandi
CONGRATULATIONS!!!! I'm so excited!! Emma is so beautiful! Libby will be such a good big sister, I just know it! I'm so happy for all of you!
Glad to hear everyone is healthy and don't worry Martin, you'll recover, OH in about 18 years or so... :)
God Bless!

WHAT? Her name isn't Anna Karenina Barron?
I guess Eliza and I will just have to adore her anyway!
Congratulations!!! We can't wait to meet her. Please let us know if/what you all need.
Welcome to the newest member of the Wednesday playgroup! Sure will be interesting to see what all the 1-year-olds make of her! We're positively delighted for all of you and can't wait to meet little Emma. I may slip sometimes and refer to her as Hortis--just a warning!
Hurray, hurray, hurray!
Congratulations to the whole family!
(What a terrific picture of Emma with her hands to her face).
Good work, Kerri!

She's perfect!
Just adorable! So glad I was able to get that little bundle in my arms last night. Great job, Kerri and Martin! Yet another darling Barron lady for Owen and Alejandro to fight over.
How exciting! Congratulations!!! -Y
I can't wait to meet you Emma! Good job Kerri!
Welcome Baby Emma! Congratuations you guys! Emma is an absolute beauty and we're so happy and thankful to hear that her and her mommy are healthy, safe, and sound. Kerri, we pray for a painless-as-possible recovery and are thinking of all of you. We love you and share in your joy. She's gorgeous and I know Libby is going to make an amazing big sister. Much love xoxo
You're a trooper, Kerri. WTG!!!
Congratulations on another beautiful little daughter, you guys. And if having 2 kids is harder than having 1, please just lie to me, OK?
Goodies are en route.
love all around--the Shea's
YAY! I knew if I headed over here, I'd see good news.
I'm so happy for you, Kerri and Martin. Libby, you'll learn to cope. Ellie can tell you more about it.
