Heather's Early Birthday Present

On January 24th at 7:42 pm Samantha ("Sam") Erin Luchkow (6 pounds eleven onces) entered the world. She has her mother's beautiful skin and her father's big toe. I brought them both home yesterday evening.

Heather was amazing...as she always is. Katie got to meet her baby sister Sunday morning. She greeted her younger sibling with a "Hi Sam!!". I will try and post some pictures later this afternoon.

Heather, Katie and myself would like to pass on a special thank you to all of the people who helped us to get to this point: our parents, sister's, brother inlaws, grandma's (GG's), aunt's, uncle's, family friends, and collegues. Your kindness and generosity has touch our hearts and we look forward to having all of you meet the lasted Luchkow Lady!!

Heather is still trying to decide what the name of blog will be changed to....stay tuned.

Lots of Love and Heather and I will keep you posted on the ladies in our lives.

Congratulations! I found out on T and J's blog and was so glad to hear you made it through the last months of bed rest somewhat sanely!
