The Lady Anne

Anne Victoria Charlotte arrived Saturday, July 21st, at 2:06 AM.

Six pounds, four-and-half ounces and 19 inches of perfect baby!

She arrived at exactly 37 weeks and although she is small, she is full of spunk and fire. Already she has quite the little personality and is an amazing nurser. Like her brother Malachi before her she is extremely strong for a newborn and she wants to eat constantly.

We are so happy to have our beautiful little girl in our arms. She is so pure. She is so wise. Her eyes are the eyes of the Ancients and in them I can see the face of God. We are so happy. We are so blessed.

Love,
Sarah

  1. Congratulations! One of my cousins had a little boy on the 20th, so between the two of you, everything seems to be babies this week! There's nothing quite like the excitement of a new life entering the world. I'm sure adorable little Anne will be giving her brothers a run for their money soon enough.

  6. Congratulations, Sarah! Born on the opening day of the Jane Austen Festival, huh... Looks like you might have a Jane fan on your hands! Seriously, though, she is precious, beautiful, and a blessing! I am glad you both are healthy and happy.

  11. Congratulations! I was thinking about you last night, and how your blog had been just a little on the quiet side and wondered if perhaps you were busy with something infinitely more important. Looks like you were!

    She's a beautiful brand new person.

  15. Dear Sarah,
    When your blog went quiet, I suspected little Anne was on her way. Welcome, little one, to a loving family.
    Very best congratulations, and wishes for a safe, blessed, secure, recovery and time with your newest little one.

    Hugs,
    Natalie

  17. Her name sounds very royal. I love it. And she's so precious and tiny! I wonder if I'll ever have a baby below 8 lbs. I loved the pictures of her with David. The bond between fathers and daughters is very special.

    And you feel good enough to make pita bread! That's wonderful.
