moments with lily...

yeah, we think she's an Eskimo baby with all that hair...

(jakob and ellie both were born with black hair like this, they are the two kids who turned white blond within the first year...) the eyes are the windows to the soul...

can't you tell she just came from heaven? lotsa lovin'

my babies... yeah!! we came home Wednesday morning... 6 days after delivery...

What a miracle-- they told us she would not breathe on her own for one to two weeks!! she was not breathing when she was born, and couldn't cry with a respirator in,

so, it took us two days to hear her very first cry...

although it looks lusty, it was a pretty quiet squeak...

Lily's first lilies... sweet baby... a bit jaundiced, she needed to soak up the rays for a few days... yeah, when things were a bit hard on mom, Todd was the rock...

lily is so lucky to have such a great dad!! We are so grateful for the miracles that we have experienced this past week.

Lily has brought such a sweet spirit into our home...

Thanks for all of your love and prayers!!

love ya!
