Diana Margaret Ogden

Diana Margaret Ogden was born at 3:53 a.m. today.
Weight: 8 pounds 7 ounces
Length: 21 1/2 inches

Sam (my wife) decided she wanted to have a home birth this time . . . and she did it!
Mother and baby are doing great.
I'm doing great, too. 😁

Sam's sisters (Taylor and Kate) alternated staying the nights this week with Sam. Friday night was Margaret's (my mother-in-law's) turn. Baby Diana decided to wait for her namesake to arrive at our home, and then she made her appearance. Fitting.

A big THANK YOU to everyone who helped Sam along the way.

We are very grateful for the following midwives, who helped bring little Diana into the world:
Amanda Counter (primary midwife)
Amanda Mauch (senior midwife student)
Stephanie Preston (senior midwife student)





I went to work early this morning. When I returned at 6:00 a.m. (east coast time) I noticed a missed call from Sam. I knew Sam wouldn't be calling me at 4:00 a.m. Utah time to chitchat. Lo and behold, a daughter was born. I get to fly home this afternoon to spend some quality time with my beautiful family.

  1. Glad for the safe arrival! Glad you get to spend some time at 'home' -- would love to have you over again when you're back in the area. :-)
