We share our joy and overflowing gratitude over the birth of our 4th covenant child!
"For this child I prayed, and the Lord has given me my petition which I asked of Him"
(Words from Hannah's namesake in the Bible)
Hannah Helena arrived at 6:44pm on Monday, March 7 to two very proud and thankful parents.
Hannah weighed 9 lbs. 12 oz. (our 2nd biggest child- Judah was 10 lbs. even!)She is 22 inches long, and very adorably chubby!
Our 3 oldest were allowed for a very short visit that evening to welcome their new little sister.Lots of loving!
Selah's turn to hold her little sister...
Selah was the first one we called from the labor and delivery room."I knew it was going to be a sister because I wanted a sister!!"
(repeated several times with much excitement)
Big brother Judah's turn...
"My arms are warm so I can hold Hannah"
Tiny fingers!
Isaiah's turn... pure captivation!
Finally, Daddy's turn to cherish his little daughter...
Welcome, Hannah! We love you, and have been waiting a long time to hold you!!!
Congratulations! She's adorable with her chubby legs and dark hair! God's blessings!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations...the Lord has surely heard our prayers! She's beautiful~i LOVE chubby babies. The picture of her and Selah is precious. Hope you're feeling well and can't wait to meet her!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations. She is a big baby. It reminds me of my Brendan. He was a little bigger but they sure eat and sleep well when they are that big.
