Clara Michelle Gurney




She's finally here! We are so excited to have a new little baby in our home. Clara is adored by her brothers. They just can't get enough of her.

I was induced April 30th. Lynn and I went to the hospital and just got to hang out all day together. It was very relaxing! We rented a couple of movies and Lynn read his papers for school. I couldn't have asked for anything more "chill". I started pushing around 4:30 and Clara was born at 4:45 pm. That's the jist of it :) She weighed 7 lbs. 11 oz., was 21 inches long and 13 inch head. She has the darkest hair and lots of it! Here are some pictures of Clara's first few days of life. I've got more pictures, but they weren't uploading. boo!

Clara minutes after being born.


Happy mommy!

Porter was so excited for his sister to come!

Peyton loves her too!

Lynn doesn't know what to do with a little girl...he loves it!

Going to the doctors for the first time.

How fun to have a girl! She is so cute, make sure to dress her in whatever you want because to soon she will have an opinion of her own. I have to trick Kate into wearing anything that isn't pink. Can't wait to see more pic's.
