We Have a Little Light

And she shines so bright.

Lucinda (Luci) Hope Owen decided to arrive early yesterday evening.

She's 5 pounds, 8 oz., she's 18 1/2 inches from tip to toe, and she's cuter than she has any right to be. You know, that last part goes without saying...

John and I and the girls are so happy to have her.

I'm sorry for the missing snapshot that belongs

RIGHT
(CHARMING BABY FACE)
HERE,


but I don't have the cable for the camera with me, and I only have an internet connection until we leave the hospital, hopefully within the next half hour.

I'll make an effort to buckle down and go to the library sometime soon to post overdue words and pictures, but at least you have the best news we've got!

Rejoice!

  7. the church was all abuzz yesterday after the hasty (and tortuously vague) message John left.

    So glad for a few details.

    So glad you are well, my friend, and she.

    So ANXIOUS to see the darling dear and give you a hug...the anti-hug gal is going to have to deal (consider yourself forewarned)

    Congratulations, SO MANY, are sent your way.

    I have been fighting all (intense) urges to drive out there since I heard the news. Can't wait to welcome your precious girl proper-like.

  16. I am SO GLAD i checked your blog, it has been lying dormant for a while so I wasn't sure when I would hear of your baby dear's arrival. I've asked my sister a few times, but no baby at the time..

    CONGRATULATIONS! :) I absolutely LOVE her name, it is so beautiful~

    Hope to see her in person before she isn't a baby anymore! When would you like to come over??? :)
