For now, I'm just going to copy and paste the text of our original email below; when I've had more than 6 hours of sleep cumulative since Saturday (don't hold your breath) I'll add something more creative:
At 2AM on Saturday morning, Traci woke me up and gently indicated that we neeed to get to the hospital without observing any traffic laws; four and a half hours later we were holding our beautiful daughter in our arms--and Traci did all of this without so much as a Tylenol. Nona Isabel Lee ("Isabel") weighed in at 7 lbs 4 oz and measured 21 inches. She has a sweet disposition and a beautiful singing voice, and likes to sleep as much as her father, though she is a much earlier riser.
Mother, daughter, and father are all doing well, and all are of course ecstatic. The only challenge has been getting our laptop to communicate with Baylor's wireless network; as a result, we haven't been able to attach pictures and some of you might get this email twice--but when we're back at home we'll send out plenty of pictures. In the meantime, try to imagine me with less hair and a pink onesie. Thanks for all the kind wishes, and we can't wait for each of you to meet Isabel soon.
What a beautiful baby! And what a beautiful future she has. Congratulations and enjoy every moment with the beautiful Isabel. And take lots of pictures for those of us who have yet to receive the blessed gift of grandchildren.

Simply precious! And sleep will come eventually.....really! xxx Susan E.
ReplyDeleteIt is so wonderful to "meet" you Isabel. I just can't wait to play with you--babies are my absolute favorite thing in the world. And you are already my favorite baby!

She is beautiful, and will no doubt be smart, compassionate, and generous like her parents. She is blessed to have such wonderful parents who no doubt will raise her with much love and guidance. The Fagan Family cannot wait to watch her grow and look forward to watching many of Isabel's firsts together. Enjoy, enjoy -- she is precious. Love, Aimee, Hugh & Kate
ReplyDeleteNo, I am not your Aunt K but this is my id for my family. So, in case you are terribly confused - this comes from the Urie household in Dallas.
ReplyDeleteI was just thinking about Traci the other day and wondering if your new bundle of joy had arrived. Sandy was kind enough to forward this along to me.
What a sweetie - I know you are both thrilled and she is quite the beauty. I look forward to having the opportunity to meet this little one in person. Hope this finds you all well and happy
