She’s here!

... and she's really real, and she's ours, to keep! ! We've all been marveling over her, so full of joy to receive her! The child that we've hoped and prayed for is now filling our home with new life and precious moments.

Yes, our darling baby girl, Savannah Abigail, was born on Tuesday, the 21st (came on her actual due date even!), at 1:03 p.m., weighing 8lbs.1/2 oz. and measuring 21.5" long. Her hair (or peach-fuzz) is strawberry blonde, leaning more towards the strawberry part... wondering if we're going to have another red head around here?!

She was delivered naturally and my hospital experience was a good one, had wonderful nurses and a great doc. I'll write more about it later, but just wanted to take a moment to quickly let you all know, and upload some pics... I'd hoped to share sooner, but haven't found time to do much besides feed myself and love my kids a bit between feedings (she wants to nurse all the time!) and naps...

We are all so thankful for this precious blessing that the Lord has added to our family. Chris's boss told him to take the rest of this week off (with pay) which has been so nice. We are relishing every moment of getting to know this little one. I am just so overcome with gratitude and emotion again and again as I hold her close, smell her and see our family interacting with and loving her.

Isn't she beautiful?!

Thank you all so much for your prayers, and patience in waiting on me to finally get around to posting this much anticipated announcement! Thanks for being so excited with as well.

    She is so beautiful! I am having a big surge of baby lust - I haven’t felt that in a long time. I’m glad all went well.

    Meant to drop by sooner but have been interrupted when trying to get online. Savannah is beautiful! My G-d bless your family and may you live in the fullness of His joy!

  12. Birdieon 25 Aug 2007 at 8:53 pm

    Congratulations! Your Savannah is absolutely beautiful.

  13. Barbon 25 Aug 2007 at 9:28 pm

    Oh Beth, She is so beautiful! :) Thank you so much for sharing your lovely family. The pictures with Savannah and her big brother and sister are just too precious for words. I had tears in my eyes watching the slide show.

  14. Serenaon 26 Aug 2007 at 12:50 am

    She is sooo beautiful! I’m so glad that everything is going so well. I’m looking forward to the day we get to meet the newest member of the family, though that looks like a ways away with all that is going on here and a baby due in 5 weeks now in our family. Joelle is doing well, considering how difficult her life is right now. All I can say is that G-d is good and He is faithful!

    love and shalom,
    Serena

    Welcome to the world, Savannah Abigail!

    She is so very beautiful, Beth and Chris, and sure to bring much joy to the Brewer tribe!

    Soak in those newborn days, Beth, and take lots of pics to show us!

    May He, who knitted that little one wonderously and miraculously in your womb, continue to shine His face and blessing upon her life. May she be protected in all circumstance, and may He nourish and grow this olive shoot in your care, for His glory….

    Be blessed, Brewer crew…

    Shalom,
    Carla Lynne

    Hi Alli,

    Yes, it has been a long time since I’ve heard from you. I’d checked over at your blog a few times here and there, saw that you went quite a long time without blogging and have been wondering how you are. I just now tried to visit your blog again, and for some reason it’s not loading for me very well… I’ll try back later though.

    Thank you for being so excited for us. ;) God IS so very good, and we are all just absolutely thrilled over our new baby girl, daily. She is a beauty, we have people comment on what a pretty baby she is all the time, and so, so alert.

    love ya girl~

    Thank you all SO much for your congratulations!
