It is hard to put into words how completely, and breathlessly in love we are. Our entire lives were rerouted for her in an instant, and we cannot remember what it was like to not know her. This baby that we dreamed about for so long is real. The tiny chin dimple and chub in her cheeks that passed from me to her, her pursed lips and golden feathered hair from her father. Her squirmy seven pound body, and her wide, deep blue eyes that melt us down to the very core. Nothing about her seems foreign. She belongs to us. Without question. We were made to love her.

  1. It's amazing how that parenting instinct just kicks in after birth and it just feels like everything was just meant to be. Despite how overly exhausted I was the newborn stage was my favorite, enjoy it because she's going to grow in the blink of an eye.

    She is so adorable congrats again! :)
