IT’S A GIRL…
KIRA SOPHIA
Born Wednesday May 6, 2009 @ 8:14am
8 lbs 5oz
18 3/4″ long
Much to my complete surprise and delight Chris and I welcomed our daughter into the world with love, pride, joy and sense of wonder that goes beyond words. As many of you know I was so convinced that I was having a boy, but I guess someone knew better. Whenever I thought of having children in the past I couldn’t imagine having anything but a girl but when the reality of it arrived and I was actually pregnant for some reason I totally believed it was going to be a boy. I can’t explain why, the amount of movement inside me, the way I felt, the way I carried but at the end of the day it was my daughter making me glow, showing me the beauty of life, making me smile and giving me strength. From the start, this little woman has opened my eyes to a whole new way to be.
Thank you Kira.
Much more to come…but I have to go take a nap now.
Oh my goodness, look at those eyes. She’s lovely.
Oh, congratulations; she’s gorgeous! I’d say an FO, but she’s really a WIP for a while. How do you pronounce “Kira”, long or short I?
Squeee!
Woo Hoo!!! Welcome Kira! You are absolutely gorgeous; just like your mummy. (Just for the record, I expect you to call her Mum – let’s make that clear from the start. I know that your mum wanted you to call her that, but I think you already have her wrapped so far around your teeny little finger that she’ll let you call her whatever you want – just as long as it’s not Mumsy)
Congratulation guys! I am so happy for you. Your own little princess to adore.
Now, must run and find some yummy yarn and pattern I have just for this little princess. Girls are sooooo fun to knit for.
Congratulations!!
She is lovely, and she has beautiful eyes!
Oh De, she is GORGEOUS.
I want to see you both, whenever you’re ready, you say the word.
Sleep. Enjoy. Love. Be. All this you deserve, and more!
Congratulations! She is beautiful…
Congratulations!!!! She is so beautiful.
Oh, SHE is so beautiful.
(Boy – pun intended – was I wrong!!!!)
I’m so glad she’s here. I hope you are doing well and that this enormous transition is going smoothly.
When you’re ready, I’d love to meet her and give the new mom a big hug!
xoxoxo

I’ve been checking and checking for this post to arrive on Ravelry! Hope Mommie prints it out with all its comments for your baby book!
Welcome, Miss Kira Sophia! Your Mommie and Daddie just love you more than words can ever say. You’ve picked the Best parents! It’s a beautiful day in the neighborhood.
Did you read Blueberry Girl to her yet? Tell her “Hi” for me.
Denise – she is beyond adorable!! I’m sure you and Chris are over the moon. I wish you guys all the best and can’t wait to see Kira in all her handknitted apparel! xoxoxo
I’m very happy for you, Denise! Brian also sends congratulations.
Hope to see you somewhere, sometime, although I guess you’ll be busy for awhile!
All the best to you all!

A miracle for you both! She is so beautiful and perfect! My first born daughter was also born on May 6th, and now she is 14 ~ the miracles continue and the joy increases, and the delight goes on and on…welcome to this great journey!
Congratulations to you both! She is beautiful!
Precious gift from the master Knitter (Ps 139) Terrific!
I’m late catching up on my blogs, but…Oh good heavens, Denise! She is the prettiest little girl I’ve seen in a long time! I’ll look forward to watching her hit all of those milestones!
It seems like only yesterday that my boys were that small, but now I’m getting ready for my oldest’s high school graduation. Treasure every single second, because they go by so fast!!
Congratulations, Mom!!
Congratulations! She is beautiful.
Oh, Denise, she is BEAUTIFUL! What a gorgeous girl! I’ve been thinking of you and so happy to know about this lovely little girl. Congratulations to you three.
