A few hours after birth, nurse Lana came in with what was needed for the bath. The timing was perfect as I was there with the kids and we got to be part of this special moment, bringing back my own memories, so dear.
Kristal chose to swaddle Everly's body to keep her warm while she washed her face and hair.
This surely was worth taking a closer look at to see if she liked it. And she did.
Her hair got soaped up and combed out.
while brother continued to look out for her.
Being unswaddled and naked in the tub brought about a bit of complaint,
but it was done quickly.
Daddy's large hands fumbled nervously trying to get the tiny diaper on.
And sister comforted her when it was all said and done.
We could not stay away.
Coming back after dinner, Everly was introduced to her Papa
who had worked out of town during the day.
Everly Elise,
we are so happy you are here!
‘May the Lord bless you
and protect you.
May the Lord smile on you
and be gracious to you.
May the Lord show you his favor
and give you his peace.'
May the Lord smile on you
and be gracious to you.
May the Lord show you his favor
and give you his peace.'
Numbers 6:24-26 NLT
With love and prayers always,
your Papa and Mimi

She is already adored by her big siblings. I love how Koen had to be right there, watching.

Oh, my goodness. What a beautiful little blessing. I am so happy for you. Thrilled, actually. She's so, so beautiful. Only God could make something that precious. Doesn't a new baby draw your heart towards God? It does mine. Just seeing that sweetness made me grateful.
