Ruth Louise
I know, i didn't do a good job with baby info. so here it goes. . .
The newest member of our family is Ruth Louise. Ruth is named after a few people. I had a Great-Grandmother Ruth, and a Great Aunt Ruth, and my mom's middle name is Louise. Shelly has a Great-Grandmother Louise and her Aunt Jeanie's middle name is Louise. I also had a Favorite Sunday School Teacher named Ruth Light she was a very friendly pleasant woman. The name Ruth means Friend and she was also a key figure in the Bible having her own book and she is honored by being a great-great-great . . . grandmother of Jesus.
Ruth was born on March 30, at 7:39 she weighed 7lbs. 15oz. and was 21 inches long. In her first 48 hours she has been a very gentle pleasant girl. Depending on who you ask Ruth looks like everyone :). She has dark hair like Elsie, a nose like Miriam and Cheeks like Caleb. She has my ears. and uh, she is a female like Shelly :)
Today has been a nice day to spend time with Shelly & the baby. There haven't beeen too many visitors and it has been nice to quietly sit and talk without interruptions. It also has been a few years since I have changed a diaper and held such a small baby, you will be glad to know I haven't lost my touch. I am sure my mind will change in a few months once life gets crazy but I could already deal with number 5.
