Welcome Baby Lydia!!!

Baby Lydia was born last night at about 3 am and we are all very excited to see her!! We can't wait! Especially me!! I'm told she has all her fingers and toes, is between 7 and 8 pounds and I think 18 inches long and of course she has red hair :-)

I told the kids about her this morning, Dave gives me a huge wide-eyed grin and says 'BABY!' and Olivia proceeds start wailing about how she's having to wait forever for me to have a baby in my tummy. Oh and she wants me to have 2 for her now.

I had to include this picture from the car this morning, it was too funny. I felt like her driver or chauffeur. She's wearing my sports watch and chewing gum. But it's the sun glasses and her arms thrown back over her head that really get you. She's also started saying this of late - 'To know me is to love me'. No, I cannot stop the laughter or the huge smirk on my face.

Dave of course is unaffected by it all.

Hi Amie! It is great to see that you have a blog too (saw the link on Heather's blog). Your kids are beautiful (as are all of their cousins) and I love seeing pictures of them. Keep em' coming. =) If you want to see what our little one looks like (www.mekenziegrace.com). She just had her 1st birthday in August. We are all very blessed.
