Lillian Grace Done

On Saturday May 29, 2010 our little Lily was born at 3:43 pm. She was a bit of a surprise, considering we weren't expecting our scheduled c-section until June 4th. I went into labor in the middle of the night and by the afternoon we had our little angel via c-section. Seriously, she is beautiful! She shocked us all by having a lot of dark hair. She weighed 6lbs 15oz and was 19.5 inches long. Luckily we were already staying in Farmington for the weekend so we didn't have the 1 hour drive to the hospital. I don't know how anyone could go through something like this and not know that their is a Heavenly Father who loves us. We couldn't be more grateful for this gift that has come straight from His arms. Being in Young Womans all I could think of when they put her in my arms was the theme that we say every week. "We are daughters of our Heavenly Father who loves us and we love him." We are excited to get to know her and to teach her who she is. What a blessing she is, we are so grateful for her!
The very proud parents. She looks a lot like her dad and I couldn't be more pleased with that.
The day we brought her home. This dress up, bow thing couldn't be more fun! I am so grateful for my little family (not so little). Lily is so lucky to have two big brothers who love her so much! She will always have them to protect her. (scroll down for more pictures)
Ben wouldn't let go of her. He would put his arm around her and wouldn't give her up.
Look how proud Jack is. He has wanted a sister forever, and he is the best big brother.
First of many, many hugs.
The boys seeing their little sister for the first time. They loved her from the moment they saw her.
Daddy couldn't be happier with his beautiful little Lily. He picked out the bow himself.
Mommy seeing her little girl for the first time. She was beautiful.
