welcome to the world, sweet baby abel (part one)

BRACE YOURSELF. THIS POST CONTAINS A MILLION PHOTOS.

so as you may have noticed… there’s a baby on sugar hill now! a cutie one too! we are SO thankful for him, & for all of the love that our little family of three has been shown by family, friends, blog friends, facebook friends, you name it. thank YOU, we love you too! having him here in our world has been more wonderful than i could ever have imagined. i couldn’t describe the feelings that followed his birth if i tried. our baby was in our arms. staring down at him. no longer in my belly, but on my chest instead. his sweet skin. his perfectly soft body. formed by God, nourished by me.

INDESCRIBABLE.

how amazing that we were given the opportunity to participate in such a miracle!

thank you to our family for capturing some of the night on camera. we will cherish these photos & the memories they hold, forever.
