Shiloh Leda Herron

Shiloh (meaning 'His Gift') Leda (after Daniel's Grandma) Herron was born July (of course all Herron children must be born in July) 7, 2011 at 7:01 am.  She was 7 lbs. 9 oz. and 20 in. long.

She is absolutely beautiful! She's been nursing well and sleeping well. Both of which I am so thankful for.

I couldn't help but add the two photos of Lily at the end. She makes me laugh. She's into putting and taking off her shoes and socks.  She tries to put on any piece of clothing she sees lying around - Shiloh's pants, Judes underwear, Papa's shoes... And I just love these shots of her with her stylish sunglasses and necklace.

finally - the pregnant belly

many of you have been asking for pictures of the belly.  sorry they are so long in coming. here ya go...

after stitches and 4th of july

The rest of our 4th was nice and non-eventful. Lily had lots of smiles and all the cousins waved flags and spun sparklers.

stitches

Our 4th of july started out with a bang yesterday at grammy and grandpa's place. Jude, Lily, and myself had just arrived and were probably there not 15 minutes, when Lily tripped walking across the carpet and hit the bridge of her nose (scrapped her eye and the outside of her eye) on my parents' brick fireplace step. Poor thing - she immediatedly started crying and bleeding all over. We took her to the emergency room (where I had hoped to be except for a totally different reason :) ) and they eventually gave her three stitches. She was a trooper - didn't even cry when they cleaned all of her wounds. Here's an iphone shot of her before she received her stitches.
