Lydia Grace was born on Wednesday. She was 8lb and 22inches long. She was born via c-section which went a lot smoother then my c-section with Jilli. We are home and resting. I will write more later about her birth and whats up around here but for right now I am just sharing pictures :)
These pictures are not in any sort of order, they are a mix of pictures from different devices so this will hop around days....
