Baby Update!

Maybe you guessed, since I haven't posted all week--our little girl is here, and she is really a she (although we would have felt blessed with another "he" as well)! Her name is Lauren Jane, and she was born Wednesday morning at 4:25 am. She is 7 pounds, 4 ounces and 21 inches long. We are doing well.

Remember the digital camera fiasco? We still don't have one, so we're using film. We can put the images on a CD when they're developed, so when I get some pictures, I will post some.

In the meantime, we're resting and nursing and holding the baby. I'll be back to posting soon!

(By the way, I did get some bran muffins, banana bread and banana muffins made before labor hit. The chickens are still thawing and will probably go in the crockpot tomorrow to make Chicken Divan--eat half, freeze half, Mexican Chicken casserole and other chicken dishes).

  1. Congratulations! We (my daughter and I) are so excited for you! Can't wait for it to be our turn next. Only 4 more weeks. Way to go getting the muffins and banana bread made. Can't wait to see pictures of your sweet girl.

  7. As the others have said "Congratulations on another blessing from above!" Enjoy those first few newborn days... they grow so fast. I've been tossing my baby stuff the last couple of weeks (sorting and giving to the charity shop) as my youngest is going to be 6 this month and I just turned 49 yesterday! Bittersweet realizing that they are now so big and how fast those years have gone...

  8. Congratulations on the birth of your daughter. What a wonderful blessing! I have a 4-month-old little girl (and a 2-year-old son) and love (almost) every minute of it. :)
