Long Overdue

Hi Everyone,

I know, we are way overdue for a post so this will be a longer, catch up post.

July was a very busy and exhausting month for us. We finished remodeling our house just in time for the renters to move in on Aug. 1st. We got lucky and rented it out quickly to a really nice couple. Then we were finally able to start settling into our condo in Bellevue and wait for the baby to come.

My best friend Jenny threw me an awesome baby shower on August 2nd. Thanks to everyone who came and braved the heat!

Then my due date, August 13th came and went and that's when we started to get anxious to meet our little one. She decided to come exactly one week later, August 20th. The day before, Robert and I were still trying to decide on a middle name for a girl. We thought we wanted a name that started with an "L". Then I noticed that the next day would be the start of a new lunar cycle, the new moon. So, we agreed that if she were born on the new moon then we would name her Romy Luna. She must have liked the name since that's when she decided to come :) Amazingly enough, after we brought her home Robert noticed that she had a birth mark on her upper back that is shaped just like the moon!

Romy Luna Miller was born on August 20th at 3:22 in the afternoon, weighing 6 lbs. 6 oz. and 18 3/4 inches long.

She is now 3 weeks old and doing great. She never lost weight and has already gained over a pound!
