She's Here!


Here she is... Lilah Marie! She was born last Monday, October 26, 2009. Marie is after my mother, who passed away very suddenly in March of 2002. Wish she could actually know my mom, but I wanted her to at least share her name.

This photo is from last Thursday. It was her coming home from the hospital outfit, not exactly practical (according to my dear friend Megan), but it sure is cute. We've been up a lot at night, she seems to have days and nights mixed up. But I think that's pretty common early on.

Her brothers are adjusting well. I feel bad because I haven't been able to do as much with them as usual, because I'm still pretty sore from the c-section. But their dad has been home, and they are thrilled with that!

No new cards or projects to share. Hopefully, once we sort out the sleep schedule a bit better I'll be able to get some stamping done.

Thanks for stopping by!

Kathy- she is beautiful and the outfit is adorable. I think after 3 boys and now a girl, practical should not be in your vocabulary!!! And, the outfit looks adorable- just like the baby that is in it. What a wonderful thing to name her after your Mom. Enjoy your every moment with her, even those bleary middle of the night moments!!!

First of all, Congratulations!!! She is adorable and what a treasure to be named after her grandmother. Those C-Sections are nasty - had one with my second. You'll be good to go shortly, just don't lift anything heavy! Hope you can get some sleep soon too :D
