it’s a girl!

May 13, 2008 at 11:52 am | In chatty | 30 Comments

I’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!

It's a girl!

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.
