And....It's a Girl!!

On July 6, 2011, our much awaited Baby Mayer entered our world and stole our hearts. Billye Grace Mayer was born at 2:35 pm. She was 7 lbs, 7 oz, and 20.5 inches long. She is named after one of Garrett's favorite women, his grandmother. For all of you that thought "it" was a girl, you were right.

For the past 2 weeks we have spent our time getting to know Billye and enjoying every minute of her (even the crying and the lack of sleep). As I said in an earlier post about Garrett's Granddad, "Losing sleep over someone you love really isn't a loss." It is amazing how quickly you can fall in love with someone and in a way be excited for morning to come so that you can hold them and simply sit and stare at them.

In the past 2 weeks Billye has already grown so much and has begun to wake up. It is such a miracle that she is here and that she is ours :)
