Avery Lyn Johnson


Avery entered this world at 10:04 pm on October 16th, 2008. She weighed 8 lbs 8 oz and was 20 1/2 inches long. She is a beautiful baby and has already been such a joy in our lives.

I've been recovering slowly, which is the reason for the delay in the post. Here are some pictures of the miraculous event! I'll post more details of the whole day soon.

Yeah! I am so happy to see pictures of her. She is so cute. I showed Max the pictures and he said, "CCCUUUTTTEEE!, shes pink and slimy" Then when he saw the last picture he said "That's Avery when she started to get un pink and slimy." This was all said in talking to a baby high voice.
