It's a GIRL!

My brother Michael (Wally) and Andrea had their baby about 22 minutes ago (2am EST on 1/26) AT HOME! Andrea's contractions started coming quickly so they called the midwife to come check her. When the midwife arrived she said the baby's head was RIGHT THERE and Andrea said she could not make it to the hospital. So the baby (her name is Tara) was delivered at home! How exciting!

Anyway, they baby has yet to be weighed and measured. Both grandmothers were present (my mom was there to watch Fiona since they thought they were heading to the hospital) and Andrea's mom was on the way to meet them at the hospital but had to make a detour to home when it became apparent they were not going to make it. Big sister Fiona awoke to the baby's cries shortly after she was born.
