Meridth delivered a beautiful baby girl this morning around 6:45 California time. Ursa Adriana Gimbel was 20 - 1/2 inches long and 7 pounds - 13 ounces. No pictures yet, as Edward is still at the hospital with her and Meridth. They'll be coming home around noon tomorrow. It sounds like the birth went well, and baby and mother are doing just fine. If you want to call and congratulate the new parents, Rusty has his cell phone, and they are in a room where they actually have pretty good reception.
Ursa was born two days after her second cousin, Jack Marquardt. With all the excitement of school starting, we forgot his birthday, and will have to make amends. We hope to see the Illinois cousins when we go up to Wisconsin for Alyssia Youngquist's wedding on September 5th.
She will also have a birthday only five days away from her cousin, Ryan Chloe! Families are such a great blessing!
Love you all,
Claudia
