Beatrix 

Born August 1, 3:02 AM. That's three hours and two minutes away from sharing a birthday with my mother. 7 pounds and 4 ounces, 20.5 inches, already showing a preference for higher end yarns and Liberty fabrics. These past two weeks have flown by. It only took a few moments for our world to shift, with her now sitting squarely in it's center.

My daughter was born just 17 minutes away from sharing a birthday with her 94 year old great grandma. Great grandma still declares that little Phoebe needed her own special day. Aren't they just amazing?! She is absolutely beautiful and you choose such a lovely name. Congrats
