Welcome To Our Family!

My cousin Amanda and her husband Tim became parents on August 19th to a very beautiful healthy baby girl!! We are so excited to have this baby here safe and sound after a very nerve-racking pregnancy for Amanda. Sloane Alexandra was 6 lbs 8 oz and 19.75 in long with a ton of dark (Haggar) hair. After visiting them last night Tim and I have come to the conclusion that she looks exactly like her dad, BUT she definitely looks like a Haggar baby.

Amanda has a labor story like no other that I have heard before and got through it without pain meds (stronger than I). Charlie was so excited to see his newest cousin and brought her one of his paintings. He kept saying "Hi baby" and rubbing her hair. It was great to see how he would respond to a lil one and now I can't wait to see him as a big brother.

Congrats to two wonderful, deserving people! We love all 3 of you!

It accord to me after we left that I didn't get any pictures of this beautiful baby's face. I'm sure Amanda will be sharing quite a few in the future - can't wait.
