Welcome Home, Cambria!

Born at 1:14pm on Thursday the 21st of December.
Weighing 6 Lbs & 15 Oz. Stretching out to a nice 19 inches.

(CAM-bree-uh as in CAM-era or CAM-ping or CAM-el)
(a middle name may or may not be coming. haven't decided really.)


Cambria is our favorite coastal town in California. We would spend every other weekend either at Disneyland, or Moonstone Beach in Cambria. A beautiful natural looking coastal area, with a small quiet little town covered in Pine trees.
So relaxing and breathtaking.
Many, many good memories.
What can we say? she didn't look like a 'Disneyland' plus there's probably some 'copyright' issue there. :)

Both mom & baby girl are doing just fine, After hearing 9 months of birthing stories, mostly horror stories, Our story is simple, started at 8am after a breakfast at Einsteins, and by 1:14p we had her in our arms. Mom is recovering very nicely, everything is in place and she's as sexy as ever! What a Peach! I'm so proud of her!

How do I start? As things got closer to The Day, I heard so many cliche's, and got so much advice, (most of it was helpful), everything rings so true and she's only 73 hours and 7 minutes old.
  • Sleepless nights
  • The responsibility
  • Constant worrying
  • Bounteous Joys
  • Tons of diapers
  • Is she eating enough?
  • What's that in her nose
  • Is that suppose to be that big?
  • Am I going to break her?
  • Did I mention sleepless nights?
  • and the feeling of Responsibility?
I have a life form here! one that I'm in charge of! Is this crazy or what? I've held cute babies, I've changed 'em and played with them, and fed them...but this one's mine! I can't give it back to anyone, and It's not a sack of flour I get to return to the Home-Ec teacher at the end of the week. There is no end....and somehow.... some way... that's a beautiful thing.
There really should be a required test to be a parent. I say that because I think there are way too many unprepared Kids out there having babies, and because I'd really love to get my hands on the manual. :) Well enough of my sentiments, (believe me there's more, but I'll spare you the 'sap'.)

Congrats Stacy and Drew! You did well! She's a cutie! Seems like it was almost yesterday you two were just dating and running the radio station and now you're a full fledged family. It's too cool. You'll be amazed you can love anything as much as you'll love your daughter. Having our daughter added a whole new dimension to my life I never know was possible, and I'm sure it will be the same for you. Again, from both Jennifer and I, congrats!!!

Stacey and Drew,
Congradulations on your beautiful baby girl! Mike and I absolutely love the name Cambria. We think it's perfect for her. We are so glad that Stacey had a smooth delivery and Cambria is so perfect.
Have a Merry Christmas. Love, the Clarks.
