Joy Elizabeth Patrick is Here!!


I know this is a week late, and now the only reason I have a minute to update the blog is because my parents are still here - Lilly just went down for a nap and Joy is being held by Nana and Papa at the moment. So our new little princess was born last Wednesday morning, May 27 at 1:15 AM. She weighed 7lbs. and 1 oz.

The labor and delivery went so smooth and she was a healthy baby! I remember laying there after she was born as the nurses were checking her out and reporting on everything, I just thanked God for blessing us with another beautiful baby. I also was thankful that I went into labor this time around and did not have to go the induction route. It just seemed to be quicker and easier that way.....Easier only because of the epidural. I could never be one of those brave moms who go natural.

Anyways, here are some of the pictures....we have taken a ton it was so hard to choose.

Joni,

She is just adorable. I can't tell if she looks like Lilly or not. I can't wait to see more pictures!

I would love to come by in the next few weeks and bring you dinner and a little goody for Joy. Maybe once you get a little more settled. Just call me.
