After a long night, Josh and I were so excited to welcome our sweet little angel Avery into the world. She is the most beautiful little girl in the whole world and we love her more than we could ever express! She is perfect in every way. This is the blue bow picked out for Avery by her proud Papa!
Feels so good to stretch!! This is the same position Avery assumed the minute she arrived. Here she is hanging out with Dad in the nursery, getting all cleaned up!
Avery loved getting her hair washed for the first time! This is still one of Avery's favorite things. Josh loves to brush Avery's hair every night before bed. It helps her to relax, and it makes me cry everytime I see it.
Daddy's girl!
The first time I got to hold my sweet angel. I cannot describe the love that I felt as they placed Avery into my arms for the first time. Every day for nine months I had looked forward to this moment when I would meet the little girl I had been thinking about and praying for constantly. It was better than I ever imagined. I love her so much!!! Avery was very alert for these first few minutes. It was amazing to look down into her little blue eyes and see her looking up at me. I fell in love instantly!
First few minutes!

Avery Lyn, WE LOVE YOU!!!
This is our favorite time of day! Daddy is home for the night and Avery wakes up to play! We sure do love our little Avery!
First real bath! 
Twinners! You can't see them, but I'm in my hot pink scrubs...we really are matching in every way! Thanks to the Bingham girls for the tie dye onesies for Avery!
These two pictures are some of my favorite pictures so far. They make me cry. I love these two more than anything in the world. In fact, they ARE my world. 
First day home from the hospital. Playing with Uncle Hayden. I didn't get a good picture, but Avery's eyes were open and we were all just loving watching her be so awake!
Playing on Dad's chest. She loves this.
