Lila Marie

Well...Lila decided that she did not want to wait two more weeks to make her appearance into this world and graced us with her presence on Monday, April 23 at 10:58 p.m. weighing 6 lbs. 15 oz. We couldn't be any happier!! Ironically, on the same day that I decided to reinstate my blogging...

Lila was lucky enough to meet both her Grandma (Bacca) Julie and her Nonny when she was less than 24 hours old!  This mommy REALLY enjoyed all of the extra help--especially with a two year old who loves to PLAY!  Thank you Bacca Julie and Nonny!!  But most importantly she was able to meet her big bro.  Owen came into the room with his grandmas on Tuesday morning, acting sheepishly.  He ran right over to the hospital bed where I was holding Lila and wanted up.  He climbed right into the bed (with the help of daddy) and sat down next to me where he stared at his new sister with the best look on his face.

Being a normal 2 year old, he didn't really want to stay in the room too long (I mean we were all itching to get out of that tiny space--can't really blame him).  Luckily, we were able to leave the next day.

WELCOME HOME!

Thanks for the helmet, Lila!  I guess you can stay!
