Introducing Charlotte Haupt

Today we welcomed Charlotte to our family! She was born at 1:20 pm weighing 8 lbs 4 oz and 19.5 inches long. Torrie delivered Charlotte by C-Section. She is named after Charlotte Mee, a member of the Martin Handcart Company, her story can be found here. Both Mom and Baby are doing well. Charlotte may have a blood clotting issue. Currently we don't know how serious it is, but will keep you informed. We are so excited to have her here!

P.s. For those that were wondering Charlotte came on the day I was to defend my thesis! I guess our girls like to be excuses to avoid final exams (Emma postoned 2 finals herself).

Emma was excited to meet her sister


Mom and Baby are bonding well

UPDATE: Charlotte's blood work came back negative. She is perfectly healthy. ~Just another example of the power of the Priesthood.
