We can't believe it's been two whole weeks since Lily Jane joined our family. As our neighbor put it so well, it's hard to remember life without her now that she's here. Things are going pretty well for the most part. She gets a bit fussy at times, but what newborn doesn't? We as parents are learning to function on 5-6 hours of sleep, which is just fine.
Yesterday we were blessed with the safe arrival of a sweet baby girl. It was an amazing experience to see this beautiful, perfect little girl enter this world and to feel her sweet spirit. Jen was amazingly strong during the labor and delivery. The doctors and nurses were wonderful too. We couldn't have asked for a more perfect day. Jen went into active labor at 7:15 and one hour later Lily was here, safe and sound. Jen's parents were nice enough to keep us company the entire day and made it all the way through the delivery. It was really nice to see family members and thank them for their kindness and thoughtfulness as we have awaited her arrival. The Lord has blessed us so much during this pregnancy and delivery and we thank Him for the opportunity to care for one of his sweet spirit daughters.
Just wanted to post a quick update. This is the big week! We finished the baby's room this weekend thanks to the master painter skills of Jason. Thanks to all those who helped and lent tools to do that project. We can now safely say that it is the nicest room in the house. :)
