At the hospital ready to meet our baby girl

Her first little cry
Safe in Mommy's arms
Love at first sight

Will and little Hannah doll
Big brothers loving on Mommy and excited to meet Hannah
All swaddled up

Precious bond from the very beginning
Nothing sweeter
Mimi and Hannah
A father's love
Precious baby girl
Our little Hannah Elizabeth was born on June 2, at 11:17 am.  She weighed 6 pounds, 9 ounces and was 19 inches long.  She had a head full of dark hair and dark blue eyes.  Will and I, along with her brothers Weston, Connor, and James, all welcomed her with open arms.  Connor was the most excited about having a baby sister.  He wanted to be the first to hold her.  He just kept saying, "She is so cute!"  When Weston first held her, he said, "Welcome to the world, pretty girl."  James couldn't stop giving her kisses and softly patting her head while saying, "Baby, baby."  Everyone is happy to have little Hannah around.  She is just like a little baby doll.  The name Hannah means "He (God) has favored me."  In the Bible, Hannah prayed for a son and God blessed her with Samuel.  So, the name literally means "God has graced me with a son."  How fitting to name our fourth child and first daughter Hannah, because God has graced us with a daughter.  She is a blessing we couldn't have even imagined.  Will says that "our family feels complete" now that she is here with us.  Oh, little Hannah girl, you are loved so much!  I thank God for you, as well as for each of your brothers that will be watching over you as you grow up.
