Introducing…

Internet, meet Lucy.

Lucille Devon Wilkinson was born at 9:36 p.m. on May 31, 2011. She weighs 7 pounds, 1 ounce, and is 19 inches long. She has Dave’s ears, my mouth, a nose that I can only describe as my grandfather’s, eyes we haven’t figured out yet, and a full head of dark hair that I cannot stop kissing.

She is absolute heaven, and I can’t stop staring at her. We’re all totally in love with her.

Last night, Dave took a picture of Lucy (who at that point still had no name) with my cell phone and sent it to my sister. Tracy was at our house with Catie, and she showed her the picture and said, “Do you know who that is?” Catie replied, “That’s my baby!!”

Today they got to meet each other. They seem to dig each other so far.

More details, like the whole birth story and whatnot, when we’re all back home and not poaching the hospital’s wi-fi.

But seriously, y’all, the messages on Twitter and Facebook the last couple of days? I don’t know what to say except thank you so much. It was beyond amazing to feel so incredibly supported and encouraged through all of this, and I cannot wait to share more about this amazing baby girl with all of you.

    Congrats to you Cindy, Dave, and Big Sis Catie! And I just literally “awww’d” all loud at Catie’s “that’s my baby!” comment.

  3. Lucy will always be one of those names that I’m so happy when someone uses it because it’s one of my absolute favorites. Congratulations!

  4. Oh Cindy, she’s just gorgeous. I am so happy for you to finally have her here.

    And I ADORE the name. Catie and Lucy. It just fits, doesn’t it.

    Yaaaay!!!

  5. All the best with the newly increased family! Lucy is adorable & what a great name! It’s similar to a name we are knocking around for our 2nd … so maybe I’m partial. 🙂 Catie & Lucy is a great little pair, for sure. Congratulations!

  6. Wow Dave you were almost that small (9lb 3oz) can’t believe it now.

    Thanks to you both for a lovely new Grand daughter xxx
