Introducing Elizabeth Lu

Introducing Elizabeth Lu! She was born April 19, 2012 in Chicago, and we are so excited! She and mother are doing well (most of the time!) and she is so dear. We were blessed to have Barbie's mom here last week, and Josh's mom arrives tomorrow to help keep the sanity level normal. Adjusting to two kids is more challenging than we expected! I came home one day last week to find large pink marks on Ellie's nose. I guess JJ found a highlighter and managed to stick it up Ellie's nose while Barbie's back was turned! He is definitely interested in her, and we're trying our best to not neglect either child. A friend took some newborn pictures on day 5 (below), which are just adorable.

The biggest shocker of all has to be her hair. Barbie's doctor has never seen so much blond hair in 30 years of delivering babies! JJ was bald for an entire year, as was Barbie, so this was pretty unexpected. She gets lots of compliments though, and we think she is just adorable.
