Wow...the past few months have been CRAZY busy!! I am hoping that things settle down a little, now that Lelan is here and the new year has begun. Lelan Elaine arrived on January 8 at 7:38 p.m. weighing in at 8 lbs. 12 oz. and was 21 inches long. She has a full head of dark hair, just like her brothers had when they were born. So far, she's been a great baby...pretty laid back.
On a sad note, my Grandma Dake passed away on December 27, so that has been hard on our family. She was definitely the pillar of our family and will be so missed. I can only hope that I will be half of the wonderful, loving, accepting person that she was in her lifetime. She always had a sparkle in her eyes and such a strong foundation in her faith in God. She was the person that I hope to become....I've definitely got a lot of work ahead of me to accomplish that task.
So, I think we've kicked off the new year right with the birth of a healthy, beautiful baby girl, who carries her Great-Grandma Dake's middle name with such honor. We are definitely a happy, thankful, blessed little family. It will be exciting to see what this year brings our way!
