Well, I have finally become a blogger!! After having 3 little girls, and countless blessings, I figured it was time to start documenting the journeys of my little ones' lives. Our family has many big events coming up (such as Nora starting kindergarten......how is THAT possible??), and as I look at old pictures and videos, I realize how quickly time passes, and how easy it is to forget some of the most precious and cherished times in life. Now that Nora is 5, Ella is 3, and Claira is at the ripe-old age of 5 weeks, my hopes are to document many of our experiences together during their sweet childhood.
Obviously, our most recent greatest event was the birth of our precious Claira. It was such a long and grueling 36-hour-labor, but oh-so-worth it in the end!!! :) Here are some of my favorite pictures from the night of her birth:
I think I'm still in shock in this picture. But happy. ;)
Another daddy's girl already....
This might be one of my all-time favorite pictures. This is Ella's first time holding Claira, and she is so in love. To this day, she can't walk by Claira without kissing or touching her. Such a SWEET big sis.
First pic of my sweet 3 together. :)
Then they had to jump in the bed and give Mama some lovin.' :)
Grandmommie and Paw-Paw had been waiting forever and a day to meet their newest granddaughter. She FINALLY arrived at 10:25 pm on 6/22/12.
Grandmama was there throughout the whole delivery. I don't think I could've done it without her. :)
Now at 5 weeks, Claira is still sleeping all the time, smiling, rolling from her stomach to her back, and growing like a weed. She's over 10 lbs, and officially going BALD!! ;)
Life is good.
