I have a niece....


...and she is PERFECT!!!! My brother and his wife Laura checked in the hospital yesterday morning to be induced with their third baby. Things moved pretty swiftly and by 12:00 Laura was ready to push. Unfortunately, Livvy was sunny side up and stuck under her Mama's pelvic bone. After lots of hard work on Laura's and the nurse's part including the vacuum, Livvy Grace was not moving. So the next step had to be a c-section. My brother and Laura were worried and a little nervous but it went great and Livvy is amazing. She was wide eyed and alert and ready to see the world. She weighed 8 lbs. 12 oz. and was 20 in long. And on my goodness, her face couldn't be any sweeter!! My two nephews, Landon and Luke, were so happy to see their baby sister-- it just brought tears to my eyes. I loved taking pictures and sharing in this blessed day!!

 







I think Aunt Melanie will be doing some serious spoiling!! =)



GOD is GREAT!!!

Too sweet. She looks like Larry in that first picture. I think it's her mouth. It's amazing to me how sometimes we can see resemblances in babies that young.
