Leona NaThel Carlson
Welcome to our family!
Nicknames: Lea, Baby Lona (Garrett's).
Born May 5, 2009 (also known as Cinco de Mayo!) Exactly one week late (definately my daughter!)
6 lbs, 7 oz.
19 inches.
Healthy. We couldn't be happier, or prouder parents. I went in Monday night to be induced. She was born at 5:30 the next morning with no complications and with (luckily) a very easy labor! YAY for ME!! We had a lot of visitors in the hospital and loved every second! Thanks everyone for the love, flowers, help with Garrett, and for bringin me Jamba Juice! :)
G-ma & G-pa Carlson brought Garrett the next day, and he didn't even say so much as "Hi" to me. He went straight to "Baby Lona" and wanted to hold her, touch her bow and eyes, and was very intrigued with her tiny toes! Since we've been home, he still LOVES her, but he doesn't love all the attention SHE gets. For example: I was changing Lea's diaper and at the same time, Earl was changing Garrett's, and she started crying, so he had to give his best, whiniest cry as well!
LOVE THIS PIC OF EARL!! My sometimes-all-too-macho husband (I can say that, cuz he probably won't read this!) has completely melted for his daughter. He is just like Garrett. Wants to hold her, look at her, and is also very intrigued with her tiny toes! He has been the BEST HUSBAND EVER!! And he made a killer salmon dinner for us tonight! 
Don't love this one of me, but its a good one of Little Lea with her eyes open.
We love her so much and are amazed at how love GROWS. Its amazing how much we love Garrett and can still love another child so much as well. Having children truly makes us love and appreciate our parents so much more. We feel so blessed to be able to be parents to such beautiful, happy, and healthy children.
