Whoops...

Well, I brought the camera to church on Sunday and asked my dad to record the baptism, but foolishly I didn't change the movie setting from standard to compact, so it only got 4 minutes and the whole memory card was full! It's great quality but only has the baptismal covenant, not the actual baptism. Thankfully my dad got the rest of it on his camera, plus some stills, but that means y'all will have to wait until such time as I can retrieve them from his camera before I can post anything here.

My baby

Anastasia is a very contented baby so far...she only cries when she's hungry, or being changed, or about to fill her diaper. (And not every time for any of those.) She's been pretty sleepy, but still nurses quite often, and today she was awake a bit more, which is really fun. Her eyes are so pretty. I'm still not sure if they're going to be blue or....?? They almost look like they're going to be something else, which I thought was impossible with Forrest and me both having blue eyes. But who knows? She does have darker hair than any of the other kids...although it's still a light brown and could very well end up blonde.
Today she smiled at me, awake! She has smiled in her sleep from...I don't remember...probably the second or third day. But this was the first time she smiled awake and it was so cute. It was a little bit crooked and made one of her eyes wink shut.
Anyway, without further ado, here are pictures.

Introducing Anastasia Christiana Jael


Born: November 7 2008 at 3:05 a.m.

Weighed: 9 lbs 5 ozs

Length: 22"

She and Rebekah are doing well. She has quite a bit of brown hair and a big fan club.
Now I think I'll go to bed!

P.S. It looks like Taneisha was the closest guess overall.

Join the Conspiracy



Whew...

Well the two year Presidential election season is over, now how much longer is it going to be for us to find out our Governor?? Oh well, Friday we get our Amby bed (that we got for $117 shipping included) and we keep telling Анастасия she can come out any time. I'm REALLY looking forward to meeting her! Please be pray that I will be patient... but that she will come soon...but what really matters is that Rebekah and Анастасия are both safe and healthy. Timothy wants to watch the birth and I told him that was Mama's decision to make, but he is also fascinated with the umbilical cord so I told him if she is born in the night he can get up and help cut the cord.
