A new member to our family





Well, I finally decided to jump on the blog wagon and start a blog...we'll see how it goes!

As you all know little Lucy joined our family at 1:16 on September 9th, 2007. She came 2 years, 3 days, and 3 minutes after her big sissy, Libby. The birth was really fast, and somewhat humorous in retrospect since I decided to go 'all natural'. The recovery has been speedy however, so it was all worth it.

Lucy was 3 weeks early, weighing 6lbs 4oz, 19 1/4 inches in length, head circ 13 inches, and absolutely perfect!

We went home 24 hours later, and have been doing great ever since! Matt has taken this week off to help with Libby, and my mom is coming Monday when he goes back to work.

Today we all wanted to get out of the house and enjoy the cooler weather, so we all went to the playground. Libby got a kick out of showing baby Lucy how to go down the slide and swing. It was lots of fun, and both girls were worn out when we got home. I forgot the camera, but I'm sure there will be plenty more opportunities in the future. I will post some pics from the last 4 days with our new little gal!

I am so glad you started a blog. Great way to keep up with you guys. I am so thankful the Lord blessed us with such wonderful friends. You have 2 beautiful little girls.

The Lord bless you and keep you;
