Finley Kate Lacher finally arrived on 4/11 at 12:31pm. She weighed 7 lbs and 9 oz, just like Avery and was 19 inches long. Pam checked into the hospital at 1:30am so it was a long labor, but she dealt with it like a champ. Although it took a while to progress, according to Pam the labor was relatively easy - not a lot of pain, and got the epidural at a perfect time. She only had to push once! Enjoy all the pictures. : )

Awaiting baby Lacher #3

Hi everyone. So...we are waiting for the arrival of baby Lacher #3. Pam isn't due until 4/14 but she is at 4cm and we all thought she'd be at the hospital by now!!! Keep her in your thoughts and prayers and I am sure she will be in labor soon. : )

First post

Hello all! Welcome to the Stewardson Family blog! This is my first post on my first ever blog. I figured I would start one so I could be cool and be part of the "in" crowd. We are eagerly awaiting the arrival of our new niece. Pam is due on 4/14 so it could be any day now. Darren and I are also getting very excited about our European vacation!!! We leave May 23 for London. We'll spend 3.5 days in London, 3.5 days in Paris, 2 days in Barcelona and 6.5 days in Italy. It will be the first trip to Europe for both of us, so we'll be the blind leading the blind - but we are getting a lot of tips from family and friends and doing a lot of reading.

Hope everyone is doing well!

Love, Melissa and Darren
