Claire Emeline Blok is here!

Posted on Tuesday 20 November 2007

Hey Everyone, well Saturday Deneall magically went into labor 2 days before we were going to induce.  Thank God everything went well, and the Baby is beautiful.  Claire Claire 013was born on Sunday Morning at 2:18 AM weighing in at 8lbs 4ounces, and 21 & 3/4 inches.  Here we are after about 35 hours of no sleep sometime on Sunday evening.  I had worked Saturday morning at 6AM, so I was pretty tired, and I’m sure Deneall was somewhat tired after labor and stuff.  Deneall’s parents came and watched the baby on Sunday, but Claire slept most of the day so it wasn’t so bad.  Claire has since become more active and has prevented us from getting much sleep.  We just got home about 30 minutes ago (12:20PM on Tuesday).  Just wanted to give you a Claire 020quick update, and head back to help Deneall.  I’ll be posting more pictures, and hopefully some video clips too.

Oh, also, I believe this will be our first and only child as I have Deneall saying, on several occasions, she will never do this [give birth] again.    

Look how cute Claire is!!!  I made her!  Deneall’s Mom and Deneall’s Dad are pictured below.  This is their first Grandchild.  They were super excited.

    PS Amelia is looking forward to meeting her new friend…assuming of course that she isn’t a sci-fi fanatic like her dad :)

    Gary - So very happy for you! Congratulations dad! When does she get to start playing with Legos? I picked up a nice tub of girl Legos at a rummage this summer - they are pink and grey. Say the word and they are yours (or Claire’s).

    Wow! I was so excited to see pictures of your new baby after Kate sent me an email with the link to it. I can’t believe you are a new mom! You are a mom now, wow! I have been meaning to call you but do not have your phone number. I’ll have to keep checking out thebloks.com to see what’s going on with you. Have fun and stay healthy. If you’re in Rochester around Christmas maybe I’ll see you than. Have a great Thanks Giving with all your family! Love, Alicia

    What a beautiful baby girl.
    Love her name. Glad to see you Claire Emeline
    She is so precious.
    What a gift!
    Just remember when you are up in the middle of the night that
    “to whom much is given, much is required.” Turn that around
    and you will be reminded how great a gift she is! :0)
    God’s blessings on your beautiful family!
