Introducing, Lola! Seriously, congrats to you both. Expect a small, but crammed to the gills, box of newborn baby clothes to arrive on Monday or sooner. While folding them up last night, Justin and I had to siiiigh -- I held up one of the "just born" onesies that Sara wore her first month and it's bittersweet now 'cuz the entire thing isn't even long enough to go from her neck to her diaper's waistband, now. Cherish every moment, even the harried, "What exactly did we get ourselves into, again?" moments. The old chestnut that they grow up before you know it? Totally true, especially in this first year. And take lots of photos, even if they aren't masterpieces photographically, they are because Lola is in them. Love to the new 'fam! - Shannon, Justin & Sara Hello, World! Introducing, Lola!

I guess I'd be more disturbed if she weren't. ;) It’s a girl on the Internet, so naturally, she’s naked. I guess I’d be more disturbed if she weren’t. ;)

It took us until Sara arrived for it to really sink in that -- "You know what, the American Academy of Pediatrics doesn't LIVE HERE. If Sara sleeps best this way, or needs to eat that much/little, or only poops X days a week (like, uh, once every 7 days for awhile--who knew that was possible?), then that is what she's gonna do. Barring anything truly out of the ordinary, we humans are built pretty resiliently and we adapt and overcome. Babies seem to be born knowing their (first time) parents are totally clueless. Sara definitely cut us a lot of slack, and I'm proud to say we haven't ruined her yet. ;) You’re already ahead of the power curve.

Sara's pics are hidden from all but friends and family, so join up and ping me.) She also did a little air guitar during one of the latter ultrasounds. :) Sara flashed a Hook ‘em Horns, too — it’s on our Flickr feed (why aren’t you on Flickr, huh, huh, huh?!?
