little louanna

i got to spend the last 24 hours with the newest member of our family...louanna justice! she is one week old today (wednesday) she's just so precious that words can't even explain, so i won't even try. just take a look...







you can't tell completely from the pictures how small she is... but you can get an idea. she was 3 weeks early, weighing only 4 pounds 3 ounces (much smaller than a bag of sugar) and was 17 inches long. she's just a little peanut. but she is the sweetest little thing there is. i was really greedy while i was down visiting at their house and held her for probably 20 of the 24 hours i was there...at least she knows i love her!
i can't wait to see her again!
