She’s here!

January 24, 2012

The sweet-baby we have been blessed with arrived on January 12, 2012 at 11:43am weighing in at 7 pounds, 1 ounce and 20 magnificent inches of love.

Blessedly, it was an easy and safe delivery both for her and me. Water broke at 7:40am and she arrived – in the hospital! – at 11:43am. (Thank goodness we made it despite the morning traffic.)

Her name came easy to us because we wanted one with strong, personal meaning.

Emaan Sofia-Nora – Emaan means Faith in Arabic, Sofia for her big sister, and Nora for Sofia’s little friend in Paradise

I’ll write more in the upcoming weeks about what her arrival has meant for our family.

Thank you for your continued support and love… we feel it!
