Felicity Archives - Feathers in Our Nest

Adored

September 25, 2017 by Aliesha

In case you’re wondering how the big siblings feel about their new little sister… let me assure you that she is QUITE adored!

(I didn’t pose these photos of them all on the bed watching her… I grabbed the camera because this moment was too sweet to miss!)

Any time she is awake they all want to hold her! It’s so precious watching them love on her!

Even Theodore is so sweet with her! (I say “even” because I thought he wouldn’t pay her much attention at all! We’ve been pleasantly surprised by how much he’s wanted to interact with her!)

The girls love to read books to her! Melts my heart!

What a gift it is to see siblings loving each other! So very thankful for this sweet time adjusting to our new baby.

We have given all of our children names that we not only liked the sound of, but that we valued the meaning of as well! It look us a little while to decide on her name, but we think this name fits her perfectly!

Felicity – origin, Latin: “happy, joyful”

Annalynn – this is a combination of our mothers’ middle names (Ann + Lynn): “grace + refreshing”

Our prayer is that Felicity would have a countenance of joy, and that the Lord would use her in the lives of others to extend grace and be a blessing!

Baby Jellybean is Here!!

She’s finally here!!!

Sweet “Baby Jellybean” arrived on Friday, September 15 at 3:44PM.

Her name is Felicity Annalynn and she weighed 9 lbs. 11.7 ounces and measured 20 3/4 inches long at birth!

We are all SO completely in love with her!

We were also very blessed to be able to go home from the hospital when she was just 26 hours old! We all slept much better at home that night!

I have more posts to write soon… the meaning of her name, pictures with all the proud big siblings, her birth story, and more! In the meantime, be sure to follow along on Instagram for daily photos and updates!

Thank you for praying for her safe arrival! She is happy and healthy! We are enjoying all the snuggles.
