Our new daughter!
Our long awaited daughter is finally here! Mckenna Bethany Johnson was born today - 2 weeks after her due date - on Thursday, October 16, 2008 at Fairview Southdale Hospital in Edina, MN. Mckenna weighed in at 7 lbs. 7 oz., 20.5 inches, and was born at 2:40 pm. Julie had 20 hours of labor, and it was a bit tough towards the end, but mom and baby are healthy. I will post a few pictures here, and we will get some more up after we get settled at home next week. Blessings to you, and thanks for all of your prayers for us over the past several months and days as we have prepared for this amazing blessing from God.
