Oh Baby!

I tried to come up with an opening that would convey the thrill of welcoming Mae Alyse Munson to the world, and I have not been able to find the words. So simply put - Mae was born yesterday, August 29th at 6:24 pm in Walnut Creek, California. She weighed six pounds, five ounces and was 19 inches long. It was not an easy delivery, but Juliann stoically persevered with Brett holding her hand the whole time. More details will follow, but for now, here some of the first shots of baby Mae.


Isn't Mae perfect? Not that I'm biased or anything~


Jewels holding her piece of heaven - mother and daughter seem as though it is a reunion and not a first time meeting. God really does have a divinely orchestrated plan for each of His children.


Does Mae know already that these pictures are just the beginning? Eyes covered, saying, "Please, just let me sleep Jaclyn."



Couldn't resist one more picture of her adorable pink socks poking out of her blanket-- they're so tiny!

Babies are such strong reminders of our purpose here on earth - I feel so blessed to be a part of this little one's life. Love you all!
