Rachel Lynn Haws arrives as a Texan!

It was an exciting Friday, 7 Sep 2007. Kelly said this was the day and she was right! Contractions started pretty regularly at 10 AM, then some Mexican lunch,and by 2 PM the doctor said to go to the hospital. Rachel Lynn was born at 7:36PM weighing 7 LBS 9 OZ and 20 inches long. We thank God that she is healthy and everything is going great. Kelly's parents have arrived to help us in this transition. Here are some pictures.
This is going to be fun (and a lot of work)!

Luke is going to be a great big brother.


Time to go home.

Karen and Dave are the first visitors to meet Rachel and help us by watching Luke for a day.


Kelly's mom dresses Rachel in the same outfit Kelly wore home from the hospital almost 30 years ago.


Eyes wide open thanks to Grandpa.
