Version 2.0
Rachelle Beverly Cook was born today at 1215 P.M. She weighed in at 8 lbs 14 oz. We are very excited and as you can see from the photos Stellan is also very excited to have a little sister.
Congratulations Kev and Krissy! So so happy for you! Miss you guys! We need to play soon....okay well probably not for the next little while since you have a newborn! :) Lots of love!
Beautiful baby, beautiful mother. And Kev and Stellan are pretty cute too. Welcome to this world, little one, I am blessed to be counted among your grandmothers
Congratulations! You look great. Not like it was hard to have a baby at all. She is so cute. I LOVE having a girl. It's so fun. Also, every time I see a picture of Stellan I think he's one of my boys. I do a double take.
