True love

Mary Lawton and her dad

Welcome home!

Welcome home, baby girl.

2 days old

3 days old. A trip to the doctor can really wear a girl out.

Most of you probably know the news by now, because my mom called you :) Mary Lawton is doing well. We're all a bit tired after 2 pediatrician appointments, a bili light delivered to our house, and 24 hours of feedings every two hours to get her weight up--all within 2 days. The birth story involves 26 hours of labor, but really, who's counting when I have a face like this to gaze at? She is sweet and beautiful, and we are extraordinarily blessed.
