Our Little Top Model

Yesterday, Aunt Sally and I decided to take advantage of Evan's happy demeanor, and see if we could get any good pictures for her birth announcement.

She behaved perfectly and after about 45 minutes of different "looks", we eventually settled on the perfect look to let the world know of the birth of our little top model.

Of course, we think every picture should be on the cover of the next issue of American Baby, but we have them here on the blog until we get the call! You may notice one picture in particular where I am leaning over her. I was attempting to coax a smile from her; but found myself completely taken aback by her sweet baby smell. Again, I was wiping away happy tears! Ah, Motherhood!

Hello, Sara!
We've never met, but I feel like I know you from the time I spent with Lance in Scotland over the past few years. Lance found me on facebook and I was thrilled to see that he was a daddy and had to read on. I'm a mom of three wild kids, the youngest is eight and the oldest is a freshman at my school, and reading your blog reminded me of what those early years were all about. Thank you for sharing the highs and lows with all of us. I was (and still am) one of those moms who needs to work outside of the house to be a better mom at home. I understood what you meant when you talked about needing to go back to work. One of my greatest joys over the years has been the many people who have come into my children's lives because I teach theatre. I wish you both the many joys and sighs of parenthood.
Lance is a great guy and after reading your words, I realize that all the great things he said about you and the life you have together is very true.
My very best!
