Obviously I filmed most of this video before giving birth. We JUST got home from the hospital yesterday so I am excited to show you my baby boy! - but I am also exhausted. Bratcher was born at 10:04pm on September 28 after 23 hours of labor. Unfortunately he had to go to the NICU because he inhaled some amniotic fluid, so I moved in there with him for a few days. Thank you so much for all your support and for following along with me all these years. I am so excited to bring y'all along for the next chapter with my family for more thru-hiking adventures!
