Penelope June Lockwood

Born July 1st, 2011 at 9:03am, weighing 7lbs, 4oz, measuring 20 inches long.

Erika did amazing with no epidural!! Mama and baby are doing amazing and Penny is a fantastically wonderful baby. Mellow, sweet, and perfect!

Jude is a very proud big brother. He loves his little sister!

A very happy and proud Nanny holding her first sweet granddaughter =)

Look at those eyes!!! She was very alert at the hospital!

And of course, her precious feet...

One very happy (and relieved) mama =)

So sweet, Erika and her kids!

Bath time! Penny LOVED having her hair washed and brushed!

All clean and wrapped up in the towel.

Clean, dressed, and happily being held =)

I could stare at her all day!!!

She found her thumb! Erika is hoping that she'll keep on finding it, too =)

Jude's new Paper Jams guitar that Nanny got him as a "Congratulations-on-becoming-a-big-brother" gift.

Welcome to the world, sweet Penny! We are all so thrilled that you are here and that you are as fearfully and wonderfully made as God intended for you to be =) What an amazing blessing you are and will continue to be to all of us!
