Meet Delia Grace!


Monday morning we went in bright and early at 6:30 amto be induced. It was a long day, but by 4:10 pm our little Delia Grace finally came. She weighed in at 7 lbs 11 oz and was 20 inches long. She has lots of dark hair and is absolutely GORGEOUS!! Lorenzo and Claire love her so much, give her tons of kisses, love rubbing her hair and holding her. My sister Kathryn took the kids for us Sunday night through Monday and then again on Tuesday. The kids had a blast at her house. On Monday Lorenzo got bonked in the mouth with a toy lantern and now has a VERY wiggley tooth that he can't wait to pull. On Tuesday, Kathryn brought Claire to us at the hospital because she got smacked in the eye with a board by a little neighbor boy. Luckily her cut didn't need medical attention, just frequent changes of band aids. We came home from the hospital this evening around 5:30 pm. It is so nice to be home. Delia is doing great and is a little love bug!

Julie - didn't I just see you in Home Depot? I can't believe that you've had your baby and are already at home. Congrats! She's beautiful. Three children is so rewarding. If you're like me, you enjoy motherhood more and more with each additional child. I hope you and baby are doing well. Enjoy these precious moments; they pass all too fast!
