my phone rang at 3:12 AM last Friday night.
my neighbor.
her water broke…4 weeks early.
i got dressed & slipped down the street to stay with their kids.
so exciting.
we waited to hear….and waited….and waited.
finally i got the call at 10:30 PM (i think?)
baby london was here.
she was only 3 lb. 10 oz.
but she is healthy…doing great.
today i got to see her.
she was so precious, tiny and beautiful in every way.
she is God’s gift.
congrats jen and russ.
i look forward to watching her grow.
it won’t be long before she is running around
in a princess costume up and down the block with the rest of them.
she is the tiniest baby i have ever seen.
just so sweet.
and then 2 days later my friend Kim had her baby benjamin.
he was 7 lb. 9 oz.
he was so content…and lovely.
i couldn’t hold either baby because i have a cough.
it was killing me.
i was having serious baby fever in that hospital.
Kim i thought you looked wonderful.
i was thrilled to see you so happy this morning.
benjamin is going to bring so much joy to your family.
he is so adorable…and I WILL be holding him all of bible study.
i know i will have to fight to get him though.
i can’t wait.
i see alex in this face?
what do you think kim?
