Miss Hannah is Here!

We welcomed Hannah Lea into our family this past Friday morning...
She was born at 2:09 am, weighed 8 pounds & 7 ounces, and was 21¾ inches long.
We are so thankful for this precious gift!

Here she is brand-new




Proud Dad




Hanging out with Mom




Mary meeting Hannah for the first time





She is already so loved!!








Say "cheese!"




All ready to go home




Here comes the crew to pick her up...
(Mary fell asleep on the way there, so Jenna stayed in the van with her.)

Heading home




The tiger lilies bloomed just in time to welcome Hannah home!




Great-Grandpa "Top" came to visit




Hannah, we love you to the moon and back!

Library summer reading kickoff... a universe of stories




All tucked in her big girl bed... eagerly anticipating the arrival of her 
new baby brother or sister, due one week from today! 
(She keeps checking the crib to see if the baby is here yet.) 😉
