Welcome to the world and our family, little Annaleigh Faith! This photo was taken late morning the day after she was born. She was born at 6:45 p.m. on July 20, 2009. She was 6 lbs, 10 oz. We are thrilled to have her. She is a healthy little girl. According to Ghanian tradition, when babies stay awake at night (and sleep during the day) they are looking after their mothers. Annaleigh is doing great with that! :)
Colt and Abigail both adore her. Abigail loves holding her and gets upset when we take her away from her again. She even loved her little newborn cry. Abigail loves to go on walks with Daddy. Joel was about to take her on one this afternoon and Abigail started crying real tears because she didn't want to leave Annaleigh. "Baby, baby..." It was so sweet. Colt has helped so much, of course. He is a wonderful eight-year-old big brother. Thanks so much for your prayers.
