We would like to introduce...

Olivia Elizabeth Horst

(or you may call her "Princess Livvie")

all our love,

Derek and Meg

p.s. more pics and video and baby stories coming soon :)

Yesterday we welcomed our beautiful baby girl into the world! Our little lovebug was born 8:30 pm on Monday, June 15, 2009 (almost 3 weeks early!) She weighed in at 6lbs 3oz, measures 19 inches long and is the absolute sweetest thing in the whole world.

I will write more later on my actual 'birth story' (and let you all know what we decide to name her), but for now I wanted to post some pictures for all of our friends and family to see our most amazing little miracle.

'me - arriving to my delivery room'


'last picture of just the two us'

'our new family!'

'Daddy's first hold'

'pretty girl'

'smooches on the softest skin EVER'

'proud Daddy'

'snuggles on Daddy's chest are the best!'

'good morning mom!'

'aren't I sweet?!'

'first manicure'

'first poo poo'

'sweepy time'

'good morning new family (I look reeaal good)'

I promise more to come!
