Baby Louisa Joy Price

There has been great excitement in the Price Family (Vancouver Division) household. On Tuesday morning at 4:00 AM Lindsay started having labor pains, with contractions strengthening until about 6:00 when Lindsay woke me up. Labor strengthened significantly at 6:30, which completely caught me off guard as I expected labor to take longer.

Lindsay hit transition at 7:00, her water broke at 7:30, and the baby was born at 7:40 in the morning. Lindsay negotiated the challenges of labor like a professional and handled things very well. Labor was so fast that our daughter beat the midwives, so I got to catch the new baby.

As the baby was a girl, Lindsay got to name her Louisa Joy Price. She was 8 lbs, 12 oz and was 21" long -- a keeper for sure!


The proud mother with her two daughters Emily and Louisa. Emily likes to put the golden hair on pretending that she is either Rapunzel or Pocahontas.


Here are pictures of the little Louisa. We think that she is the cutest thing around.


Emily, Dallin, and Louisa are all rolled up as mummies! Emily and Dallin have been learning about Ancient Egypt and thought that Louisa looked like a mummy -- of course they wanted to follow suit as well!

We feel very blessed that the mother and baby are doing well, and that we have a special little baby in our home.
