Just when we thought life couldn't get any better along came Saige! We welcomed our beautiful daughter on July 1, 2009 at 4:32 AM. Weighing in at 7 pounds, 10 ounces and 19.5 inches long. We feel so blessed to have her in our lives and to share such love!

A Bit About Saige

Now we know that all parents think their baby is the cutest baby in the world. But sorry guys. You haven't met Saige. She IS the cutest baby in the world now.

So first about her looks. She's a blondie with big blue eyes. Most people think she looks like Clif, probably because of her nose. However if you look at baby pictures of Terra you'll see quite a resemblance as well. She's very dainty, with perfect soft skin and rosy cheeks.

As for her personality, and dare we say it, she's a good baby. We've yet to experience a crying spell without an obvious reason - she really only cries when having her diaper changed or if her early hunger cues (rooting and sucking her fist) were missed.

Saige hasn't quite figured out her days and nights yet. Right now, between about 11PM and 1AM, she's her most awake. It's a bummer it happens so late at night but it is also a fun time for Clif and Terra to spend with her as she's alert and attentive.

Even though she cannot verbally express herself, she shows her love in many ways. She has eyes for her daddy and clearly recognizes her mommy by the way she'll calm down in her arms. She is loved!

Finally!

We welcomed Saige Alice Weeks on July 1, 2009 at 4:32 AM. Weighing in at 7 pounds, 10 ounces.

After being 9 days overdue we were very ready to meet our daughter. Terra had a textbook delivery, with no medications or complications. Clif was an amazing coach! Seeing Saige for the first time was an encredible moment! We have so much love for her and can't imagine life before her - she completes us!

Urf.

Urf. It's the strange sound Terra makes as she manuevers her enormous belly around. Rolling over in bed..... "URRRFFFF" Heaving herself off the couch..... "URRRRFFF"

The baby is due in 10 days, which officially means ANYTIME NOW! Clif and Terra are so excited to meet their daughter!

Stay tuned.... next posting will be announcing the arrival of the baby!

One Month til Due Date!

Although Terra's due date is a month away, realistically the baby could arrive any time after about 2 weeks! Everything is just about ready; the carseat is installed, baby's room set-up and the birthing classes complete. Terra has been feeling exceptionally well which she attributes to the good care she gets from Clif. Knock on wood, most of the typical pregnancy ailments have alluded her..... let's hope she can keep feeling good for this last month!

All that's missing is a baby!
