the arrival of lucy plum

our little lucy plum taking a nap in our bed a few hours after she was born.

she arrived around 9:38 in the morning on august 30th. i was a full 11 days post “due date” so we were excited when the contractions began the night before. we were beyond words thankful and happy to be able to have her in our home after an adventurous-painful-sole-searching-loving-life-altering-mind-numbing-blissful-all-consuming-11 hours of labor. our little plum was finally here :O)

this weekend: maybe, possibly?
