welcoming eve.












my eyes are teary just looking at the 200 pictures i downloaded from baby eve's birth.
it was beautiful.
she is perfect.
i am overwhelmed with gratitude.

sometime soon I will edit my pictures, and write eve's birth story.
today, i am going to love up my new baby, take a nap, and spend every other moment LOVING my kids and superstar husband.
i have missed them so much, these past 9 months of pregnancy haze...
i don't think i've told you enough what a great man i have beside me- seriously-- i love that guy.
and my kids-- darling.
AND, i have a BABY!!
she's so tiny and precious and amazing.
i can't stop smelling her and looking at her and thanking God for blessing me so much.
yes-- i know why i have done this seven times.
there is no greater joy.

    Beautiful! Congratulations on the safe arrival of baby Eve. I love how you have written about waiting for her to come and the joy of her arrival. What a gift to her someday when she can read how much you wanted her to join your family :)

    It's so fun to see pictures of that sweet little baby girl. Her cheeks look so kissable. I bet you're all just lovin' her like crazy. I can just smell that newborn baby smell...so sweet. Have a delightfully wonderful time kissing and snuggling and loving and holding and squishing little baby Eve.
