Sophia's Fourth Day

Here's an impromptu video Annie Kate made on Sophia's fourth day of life. It's quite dark, but thought it worth posting for those of you who want to see Sophia in action. This video also features Mia, Tim's mom.

Sophia Claire Head is born!

Proud Parents~ Timothy & Annie Kate Head

Sweet Daughter~Sophia Claire Head

Hello Friends!

We are happy to announce the arrival of our daughter, Sophia Claire Head. She came into the world healthy and happy on the eve of Thanksgiving Day~Wednesday, November 21st at 10:39 p.m. She weighed 8 lbs. and 6 oz. (almost a whole lb. more than was estimated!), and was 20 inches long!

We were in the hospital through Thanksgiving and went home that Saturday. It hardly mattered to be drinking clear liquids only on Thanksgiving Day in light of the joyful circumstances of Sophia's birth. However, upon arriving home Saturday evening, we were served a wonderful Thanksgiving meal prepared by Annie Kate's mom and celebrated with both Tim and Annie Kate's parents.

Sophia and Daddy at the hospital

This photo was taken about 1/2 an hour after Sophia's birth! She was looking quite lively even after a very long labor!
This was Sophia's second day of life. We like to swaddle her to accentuate her cherub cheeks!

~Sophia's Nursery~

Welcome to Sophia's nursery! Here's a little video tour of the finished product. We had alot of fun putting it all together. Kate did most of the fun stuff-choosing fabrics and colors. We chose the furniture together, and Tim did all the manly work of painting walls, assembling furniture, and hanging pictures. We just need our little pumpkin to come and grace us with her presence! Won't be long now....

Grandbaby Shower for Mia and Papa!

Mia and Papa's friends at work suprised them last week with a Grandbaby Shower complete with a slide show featuring Sophia Claire's ultrasound photos, cake, games, and gifts! Here are some of the photos below!

Mommy at 38 weeks!

Rather than post week-by-week pictures of my ever -changing figure, I thought I'd just shock you with one at almost full term! This photo was taken In Sophia's nursery about 2 weeks ago at 38 weeks. There hasn't been much change since then. The doctors are guessing she's around 7 1/2 lbs. I was born at 6.7 lbs and Tim was 9.3 lbs, so we're guessing somewhere in the 7-8 lb. range...!

Here you can see my blossoming waist measurement, which has gone from somewhere around 27 inches to a nice round 42 inches! Way to go Baby Sophia!
