Welcome, Hannah Elizabeth!

Look what I did earlier this week...


Hannah Elizabeth 
joined our family on Monday, August 6th at 12:45am

Hannah means 'grace'. There is no word to better describe the experience of having a child. She is something so incredibly undeserved, another gift from God.

Elizabeth means 'God's promise' and is a tribute to my British Grandma who passed away almost exactly a year ago (Elizabeth for the Queen and the London Olympics). 'Elizabeth' also acknowledges being surprised by pregnancy like Elizabeth in the Bible.

Hannah's stats:
7lbs 3oz
19 inches
born at 37 weeks 5 days
time from water breaking to entering the world = 3 hrs 45min (longer than both her sisters)
gloves successfully put on by the nurse in order to catch baby Hannah = just 1 (same as Abby)


I am blurry with exhaustion and love so I will save her birth story until I can see straight. 
Until then I am soaking up every beautiful moment of these first days with our newest miracle.

Here are a few pictures from Hannah's first couple days of life...








Welcome to the world and to our family sweet little one.
