Just moments after she was born, blurry but our first picture together.
One of my absolute favorites, someone is happy to NOT be in labor anymore...probably 2 somebodies ;) She's totally covered in vernix thanks to 'cooking' only 37 weeks 4 days.
Daddy, my HUGE helper through labor. Lots of pushing on my back. Andrea said again that lots of women would LOVE to have those huge hands pushing on their back during labor. His one hand literally covers half my back, AH I'm blessed!!! You'll notice little miss Eclair getting up in the baby business too; she was right there and just dying to get her little nose and tongue on that baby to stake her claim.
First time nursing
Getting weighed, only 7 pounds!! We all knew she was smaller but we could officially call her a peanut after the numbers came in .
More gorgeous Lucia
Yummy waffles made by Dominic for one tired and hungry momma. Again, super lucky to have such a wonderful hubby who takes great care of me and our family.
Meeting her big brother Liam for the very first time. He was SO happy to see her and was wonderful holding her and checking out her little hands and feet. The umbilical cord confused him a little bit but once we explained it all he embraced that too.

So beautiful! I'm sure I've said it before but I don't think it can be said enough, you are so inspirational and affirming of home births. Thank you for posting your beautiful pictures! Congratulations Shawna, Dominic, & Liam and welcome to the world sweet Lucia!
