This won't be fancy - just as many photos as I can get thrown up on here in the time allotted - which, to be exact, is the time before the plus one wakes up hungry again (i.e., soon).
Oh, and a side note: some of you had asked about the significance of the names. For those I haven't told, Cora was my Great-great Grandmother's name and Blakely was Coleman's Great-Grandmother's maiden name. It was also the name that his mother had wanted to use for a daughter, but had two (wonderful) sons instead!
Okay, the pics:
Here are a couple of Cora and her daddy from the hospital. Can you tell he was smitten immediately??
(This first one the nurse volunteered to take for us. She said, "I'm a scrapbooker, and I know you're going to want this shot." How cute is that??)




This one is my favorite! Oh you know you love it, too.
These are some closer-up pics, so you can see her awesomeness full scale!



It just doesn't get any cuter...
Gotta get a Mom shot in here!

My Mom, Dad, and brother Shane were able to make it up here to meet her. Diane and Phillip drove all the way up, too, but I don't have pictures of them on our camera. Do you two have them on yours??



How's that for a softie? Granddaddy Steve is giving Coleman a run for his money...
And speaking of family portraits, hows about this one?

Three generations of ladies...

Oh, and for those of you who have asked how the cats are coping - does this visual help? I'd call it interested, but definitely not fans yet.


Felicity is all up in her business! I don't think she's gotten this close since then.
And finally, a little preview of Cora's sweet moves...she's got it going on already!

There you go. I hope that satisfies you for now. I'm sure there will be many more pics in the future - to the point where you'll be asking me NOT to post anymore. Until then, love to you all from the three of us.
I still can't decide who she looks like. Either way, PRECIOUS.
ReplyDeleteAlso, I'd like to clamor for more photos.
*clamor, clamor, clamor*
Thanks for more pics, I just love to see them. Anyway, you guys all look wonderful and she is just too cute. My favs are always the first Daddy pics too. Good job guys I think you have a keeper.
ReplyDeleteYou can never post too many pictures!:) I think Coleman is more than smitten, I'm going with hook, line & sinker he's done. Again she is absolutely precious and I'm just so happy for both of you!
