New Yu too!!

We are thrilled to announce the arrival of our newest little awesome:

Calliope Sage Yu

She was born at home, surrounded by family at 4:22am on 11/8/12, after less than 2 hours of labor.  (Seriously, I woke up at 2:30 going, huh, contractions...called my midwife about 45 minutes later, after finding that I couldn't go back to sleep...She barely made it to the house before Calliope made her grand entrance!)

She's healthy and strong, weighing in at 7lbs 1oz and measuring 20" at birth.  She's the perfect addition to our family, and we couldn't possibly be more thrilled!
Studying the world already...
Our THREE daughters:  Cadence, Hazel, and Calliope!
Big sisters Cadence and Hazel have been a HUGE help, and couldn't be happier with their new little meimei...There is SO MUCH love in this house right now, guys!  It's so super awesome.

Welcome to the world, little one...it's a much better place with you in it.



Love, Mama

    I would very much like to meet you little Calliope--such a wonderful name and great way to connect her to her Mississippi River heritage here in Minnesota. The best to you and your family...(curse the geography that separates us)

    your cousins
