Esther Lillian Book

On January 30th at 1:13am a beautiful little girl was born. 6 lbs. 11 oz., 19 inches long, and 100% gorgeous! I had been in labor for about 16 hours before I decided to get an epidural, and things progressed quickly after that. About 20 hours in all, and TOTALLY worth it. :)

Here's just a "few" pics of the last few days:

Just minutes after birth.


Daddy holding Esther in delivery room.

The morning after, sort of.

Proud Daddy showing off Esther to visitors. :)

First day home, "watching" a movie (Mommy was anyway).


Grandma Janie

First bath at home. Daddy gave the first bath at the hospital too, so this is his area of expertise.


Everything is going really well. We love just looking at her, it's the best feeling in the world. We feel so incredibly blessed to have her in our lives. More picures will be on the way I'm sure. :)

Cc! She is so beautiful! I can't believe how much she has already changed - the difference from the first picture to the last is amazing. What a gorgeous baby!!!

Nuzzle her cheek for me, OK? I love you.
