Amelia Leigh Mullins!

Welcome to the world, little Amelia Leigh Mullins! Amelia is the first of Scout's September cohort to make her big debut - 9/7/07, 5:02AM, 7 lbs. Amelia is the new daughter of our friends, Abby and Phillip Mullins. Abby has been one of my closest friends since the beginning of high school, so it has been very fun being pregnant together. Now our little girls will be about 2 weeks (or less!) apart in age. Props to Abby for a successful VBAC delivery...what an answer to prayer not to have to go through another C-Section. Both Abby and Amelia are doing very well! Going to the hospital to see the Mullins family made me want Scout to come very soon! She opened her eyes a bit right when we arrived, but slept most of the rest of the time. Amelia has a lot of hair, but I didn't get any capless pics.
Proud new dad! Phillip showed up with big sister Annie shortly after Lauren and I got there. And what a relief to know this time that he was not "tired unto death!" (inside joke).
Annie is adjusting to her new role as "Big Sister" and I'm sure she will do a great job. She is a bit confused as she calls Amelia, "Baby Annie" since Abby had been showing Annie pictures from when she was born...(shortly before we got married!). I think Annie's favorite hospital activity was climbing up and down from Abby's bed.
We are so thankful for the way God is blessing the Mullin's family through baby Amelia. Keep them in your prayers as well as all the other coming September babies (Grissom's, Wojnicki's, & Balzer's)...and the other dozen plus families we know that are expecting!

Now don't go starting any problems reliving the "tired unto death" thing :)
