We are alive!!!

Blair Elizabeth Verdigets

Our new family

Just wanted to let everyone know that our precious angel entered the world on Friday, January 16th, at 3:31 pm.  She was 8 lbs and 19 inches long. She has a head FULL of black hair, and the chubbiest cheeks you have ever seen. All the Frosty's that Mommy ate must have paid off! Anyway, we got home yesterday afternoon and we are trying to adjust. This is new to all of us, so it will take some time. Please send a lot of prayers and good thoughts our way!

Also, I want to wish my wonderful husband a "Happy Birthday" today. He is my rock, and I have no idea what I would so without him. Thank you for being the best husband, labor coach, and daddy I could ever ask for. I love you!

Oh my she is a DOLL!!! I love those chubby little cheeks! I hope Ellie and I will get to meet her in person very soon! I hope the first night wasn't too bad...take care of yourself and remember to sleep when she sleeps! The best advice I ever got!
