It’s a girl! Welcome Lucy!

July 9, 2014 By Melissa Shanhun 23 Comments

At 3:05 pm on the 18th of June, our little girl Lucy Claire was born.

She was 3.580kg (7lb 14oz) and 51cm long.

Five days overdue, Lucy kept us guessing for a couple of weeks as to when we'd be meeting her.

When she did arrive she was greeted by many smiling faces.

She is such a little blessing to our family.

Lucy is settling in well, and Emily (5) and Edward (2) are thrilled with their new sister.

I am recovering well and enjoying lots of baby snuggles during the wintery days here in Perth. I might need to take another listen to this podcast for some tips for scrapping in these early days.

I'm sure you'll be seeing more of Lucy as she will feature in many upcoming scrapbook pages!

Happy Scrapping!

    Congratulations from here in Little Rock, Arkansas, USA! Your new little one is adorable, and the lovely photos show all of you beaming with happiness, such a joy to behold. I’m so thrilled for y’all. (BTW, my two sons boarded a plane last night for the long trip to New Zealand and then on to Australia for a month-long vacation touring your part of the world. Wish I could have joined them.)
