Welcome, Baby Girl

If we're friends on Twitter you might have heard this news, but it's definitely worthy of being mentioned here as well. After what felt like years of waiting, my best friend finally had her baby! She was completely sure that she was having a boy but I've been telling her since the beginning that I thought it was a girl.

Over a week after her due date (which, of course, is more of a "guess date" anyway), Miss Ali Marie arrived at 7:36 p.m. on October 1st! :-) She weighed 7 pounds, 5.5 ounces and was 20.75 inches long. She's absolutely perfect. I couldn't believe how tiny and fragile she seemed. I don't know if I just don't remember Jaxon being that small or if the 2 pounds he had on her really made that big of a difference, but goodness! I felt like I might smoosh her if I wasn't careful.

Look how she's holding her sweet little hands! Cher bebe!


Already representing the Saints like a good little Louisiana girl should! And already crossing those legs! A little lady for sure.
(BTW, her bow and onesie were gifted by yours truly. I'm thrilled that she's already able to use them!)




Our little family went to meet her yesterday and it was love at first sight. I'm going to have to restrain myself from arranging a marriage between her and Jaxon because really, that would be just a little bit too perfect, don't you think?

She's SO sweet! Did they not find out the gender...or were they told boy and it was a girl?
