Congratulations to my sister, Kristin, and my bro-in-law, Carlos!
Sofia May Hoyne Gomes came into the world early this morning at 5:50 am.
Here are her stats: 20.5 inches long, 7 lbs, 6 oz.
I've talked to them twice on the phone today. Since they are in State College, PA, it's killing me that I can't just drive up to the hospital to meet my newest niece. Thankfully, we're planning a trip in a few weeks! I can't wait!!
Perfectly enough, I was reading one of my favorite blogs this morning: Astronomy Picture of the Day by Nasa and today's picture is of Earth taken from Apollo 17 in 1972 with the title, 'Welcome to Planet Earth!'
And then, I realized some other parallels: Isaac was also born on a Sunday and Kristin and Carlos were heading to the hospital about the same time in the middle of the night that Bryan and I were with Isaac. : )
If you haven't seen it yet, check out Kristin & Sofie's Baby Shower Blog. I'll be posting Sofie's photos there, too. : )
YAY! What an exciting day!

Wow! Congrats! She is beautiful! I love the name Sofie (or Sofia.) Congrats to the new parents and grandparents. God Bless Sofie! 7 lbs. 6 oz is exactly what John weighed and he was 20 inches long.
Best wishes,
Lynne
