Announcing Lily Grace

September 16, 2011

Lily Grace was born this morning at 8:39 am.
She is 5 pounds and 9 ounces! Bigger than we thought!
She is in the NICU, and having an MRI, but she is stable and I've even held her already.
I will admit the growth on the back of her head is interesting... No one seems to have seen anything like it before.
I am doing well and very much ready to get out of this bed when they'll let me.
I will post pictures as soon as I figure out how from my iPad.

    I enjoy your blog and the honesty that you express. We have all been there at one time or another with the mountain peaks and low valleys. But, our God reigns and He is the one to turn to in our times of uncertainity.
