Brooke Renae!

At 0937 EDT on 16 July Brooke Renae was born! Maria and Brooke are doing great, both sleeping a lot (thankfully!), healthy, and recovering from the beautiful journey. Brooke came out at 7 lbs, 8 oz, and 20 inches long. Maria even joked that she timed it just right with the rest day for the TdF (and for me!).

Can't wait to get her home, but in the meantime we are at the Hospital in Bethesda, Maryland.

Hope all is well and we will post more photos as they come in.

Rusty, Maria, and Brooke
