We’re so happy to announce that Lydia Joy was born on January 8, 2010! Right on her due date!!

Labor started pretty abruptly Thursday night and then progressed for about 12 hours in the hospital before our little girl arrived. I’ll share all the details another time if anyone’s really interested. But for now, on to the exciting things about LYDIA!
She was born at 8:05am on Friday at a healthy 7 pounds, 7 ounces and 21 inches long (nice and tall!)

Blessed to be is now a complete understatement. We can’t begin to describe the joy that she has already brought to our lives.
These first few days, Adam and I have just been in awe of her beauty and God’s amazing creation. I think it’s still sinking in that we are parents and that she is ours to raise and grow in the ways of the Lord! What a privilege!

Thank you so much to all of our loving friends and family who were praying for Lydia and me throughout labor, delivery, and recovery. We couldn’t have asked for a better first week. Praise the Lord!
Lydia has had a lot of “firsts” already in one week… We’ll try to keep you posted on all of that soon!
