Sarah Elizabeth Thompson

Thank you all for the well wishes, John and I so touched, as I have said before, all of you have helped to make this time in our lives very special.

I promise to share her birth story in the next few days, it's just been to hetic these past few days, I'm in dire need of sleep, it's been kinda hard to get any sleep when all I can do is stare at our miracle baby day and night.

OH man she is just adorable!! That is SO not the name I was expecting you to post!! I love it though.


How did you finally decide what to name her??

I have to say, she looks like a Presley. Or maybe a Harper....j/k

Absolutely beautiful!!!

Congrats again, and enjoy every minute
