it’s a girl!
May 13, 2008 at 11:52 am | In chatty | 30 CommentsI’m so happy to announce that our daughter Pearl is finally here! She arrived last Tuesday and she is such a sweet little thing — she has been so much fun. I can hardly believe that we get to keep her!
I think she looks just like Andrew — she has so much gorgeous dark hair! — which is exactly what I was hoping for. I put up a few more pictures here on flickr too…
I’m going to take a few more days to hang out with her but I’ll be back soon! Thanks for the sweet emails and check-ins, I appreciate them so much.

Congrats new Family! I am super happy for you and will hopefully get to see wee Pearl at some crafty event here in town really soon. Sebastian was just talking about how he wanted me to bring him home a baby sister.
Pearl looks sooo pretty! A million congrats and welcome to motherhood!

My daughter is “graduating” from 8th grade this year…it’s such an amazing journey…good luck to you and family!

Congratulations!
I am so happy for you. When and if you need any baby things let me know. I don’t dare call you and wake the new family!!!
I have great vintage dresses that proved not to be my daughter’s cup of tea.
Imagine that!
