A new little one

Bethany Faith Taylor joined our family on July 19th. She weighed 7lbs 5oz, and measured 19 3/4" long.

She has a nice pink healthy color and plenty of dark hair. Her eyes are a bluish color. All her siblings think she is wonderful and love to take turns holding her. It's fun to have a newborn in the house again.

All the kids love to visit the "hippo hospital" after a new baby is born. (there is a large stone hippo lying on the ground in the lobby area that they can climb on) They bring a big box of donuts and take turns holding the baby and eating donuts.
