End of Week 1

Ms. Ruby is doing great and Annabelle has been such a good big sister this week. As you can see from the pictures, little Ruby is strong! She likes to pop her neck up and around so that she can see what is going on. Annabelle has been up to some funny antics this week--including creating a new milk cup as you can see in this picture!

At 3:13pm on Thursday we welcomed our new beautiful daughter, Ruby Alice, into this world at West Point's Keller Army Hospital. She was 11 lbs, 1 oz and 22 in long--as some of the nurses said, Heather gave birth to a 3 month old! Heather did so great during the labor and birth--I was so proud of her and so thankful for the doctors and nurses that helped us along the way. All babies are little miracles, and we are so thankful that God blessed us with another beautiful baby girl. We named her Ruby because we liked the uniqueness of the name and we wanted to remind her of her southern roots. Alice is after Lee's grandmother who passed away a couple of years ago--without a doubt, one of the strongest, most devoted women we have ever met and certainly someone worth of Ms. Ruby growing up to emulate. Here are some pictures of Ruby's first few days--

Can you tell who is who? The top image is Annabelle when she came home from the hospital and the bottom one is Ruby. They are certainly two little sisters!

Annabelle's 19 month picture:

Somebody's really enjoying getting all of the little baby stuff out and trying it out!

We went down to Trophy Point and took some pictures...here's some of the best ones.

This is our life right now...Annabelle runs and Lee chases after her! I'm not doing too much chasing these days!

Check out those long legs!
