Baby Eve Pictures

Below you can see a little more of the story of our little Eve Bea's first five days of life. Full story to come . . . 
The Harvest Moon under which our baby girl was born
The excited boys with their "open when the baby comes" package from a loving aunt
At the Birth Center, Special Beginnings
Meeting their new sister
They were both smitten 
Our wonderful nurse, Elizabeth asked the boys to help measure her (21")

Back at Home

First outing: the park




Helping Nonna can the apple butter they made from the apples we picked
My dad had business in town and we got to see him one day!  We had Evelyn's b-day party while he was here.
 
 
He loves his first granddaughter.  I knew he would.
He loves his crazy grandboys too.
My angel mother with my angel daughter
Where Mom spent much of her time serving us
We're sure going to miss you, Nonna!

Finally we see more shots of beautiful Evelyn with a good mix of Nonna, Babbo, and the A team. You look so cozy! I just want to curl up next to all of you with a fuzzy blanket, with Andrew serenading us on the cello.

So very sweet. Do you think I could borrow your mom for some canning? I've been taking the easy way out and just freezing everything. So happy for your family and that sweet baby girl. Congratulations!

Melissa said...

Magnificent! So happy she is here, and very excited to hear the story of her arrival. Congratulations again. She is wonderful!

Eliza said...

Evelyn looks like a little piece of heaven!

Celeste said...

::Tear:: So sweet. I love seeing into your little world there!

Nonie said...

I think she bears a resemblance to baby James.

I love those fall flowers from the boys.

And I love that well-loved kitchen!

And we loved seeing that early dose of cello she's getting.

Eve fits into the family just like me, with two older brothers! She's going to love it.

Baby Eve has such a beautiful, mature face and body that she hardly seems newborn. Then she shows up in stripped leggings and animal print outfits and I fully expect her to run outside and play.

Abby said...

Congratulations! What a beauty she is. And, Ariel, I think you look great!

I must have read this post and looked at the pictures ten times now, but I just realized I never commented! Please tell baby Eve that Aunt Merzi is VERY enthusiastic about her arrival. I can't wait to squish her.
